first suggest looking at BA2 Wiki at https://sites.google.com/site/battleacademy2/

The following are BA2 campaign/scenario using Polish equipment; Polish 1939 Skirmish 1.2 by Paul59; Case White by Petcat and Richcat and Warsaw Uprising by Petcat. I believe these are official mods but suggest you check to confirm that.

Appears for Bulgarian units would be using early 1941 German type units given info from following website: https://www.ww2-weapons.com/bulgarian-a ... arian_Army,

"The principal task of the Bulgarian Army between 1941 and 1944 was the garrisoning of the new territories, where often side-by-side with other Axis forces it waged a relentless war on partisans.
In the summer of 1944, the Bulgarian Army disposed of over 21 infantry and two cavalry divisions as well as two frontier brigades. Seven divisions in two army corps were under German operational control in Western Macedonia and Serbia for the protection of the main German supply arteries between Belgrade and Greece. All but 10 of the divisions were basically obsolete, horse-drawn and lacking in both modern armored fighting vehicles and anti-tank guns. The armored brigade was equipped with 60 German armored fighting vehicles (PzKpfw 38(t), PzKpfw IV), while in the whole Bulgarian Army there were only 121 tanks (including French Renault R-35)."

You may be able to leverage changing flags into Bulgarian units using the "BA 2 Historical Flag mod". Search BA2 forum to find working download links posted by Philippeatbay

Best of luck,
