Thank you all, my dear gentlemen! I only wish to add that these units are the results of years of common Civ2 addiction! The main credit goes to Sid Meier I guess

Well not perfectly acceptable. In English English, Bloody and sod are swearwords whereas the others are slang. Bloody has become very mild over the years - 80 years ago it was considered very shocking and was changed to "ruddy" in My Fair Lady. Sod is slightly less acceptable, but it depends on context. Telling your great aunt that there was a silly sod down at the pub would probably be OK. Telling her to sod off would be considered offensive.

And here is now ANZAC´s Mk.III Valentine infantry tank with the Red Army. This is because 1.300 of these tanks were sent to the USSR, only a handful remained in Britain for training purposes!

Fairline, those British Far East Infantrymen are supurb. Are you sure that the uniforms were that green though?

Some of them must of ended up in New Zealand - the Kiwis used them in the Solomon Islands in 1943 and they remained in active service with the NZ Army until the 1960s(!). The NZ Army only managed to get them replaced after proving to the government that the ancient tanks were making the Army a laughing stock, and seriously reducing the number of people willing to volunteer for the army.

After they were replaced recruitment increased.

Thanks The British jungle green was closer to this shade than the other colour available in the civ2 palette (ie the olive greens). Bear in mind that Australians and New Zealanders towards the end of the pacific campaign tended to wear US olive green fatigues rather more than British-pattern jungle fatigues. The US patterns were much less 'green', if this makes sense . Wish I had a scanner to show you what I mean...
