One of the many boardgames about the Cold War Berlin 85 featured a map of the whole city to enable you to play either the three allied brigades in West Berlin or the East German and Soviet forces.
To try and give the allies a bit more to fight with you are also given counters for West.Berlin precincts.
The material accompanying the game suggests that the Police were armed with rifles and light anti tank weapons.
Unisually there seem to be no website devoted ro what the West Berlin Polizei might have done pr been equipped with.
The same boardgame also contains a scenario where a West German brigade is spirited into the city before the crisis. This is pure invention and I have found no basis for it.
