Default Re: India OOB18 v.8.1 (a short one)

Only three things for v.9 OOBs:

(sorry to bother you with minor things, but for since I wrote them down...)

5 Lt Tank Mk Ia - photo is ordinary Mk I, while Mk Ia tanks were quite different. On top of that page there are photos of tanks tested in India, with modified cupolas: http://seryj221221.livejournal.com/207844.html

126 Crossley IP - it had two independent MGs, manned by two crewmen.
Winter icon 1496 seems best for all uses, since according to Osprey NV 189 on Rolls-Royce armoured cars, "extreme heat led commanders to prefer white or silver/grey shades" for Indian Pattern cars.

482-484 LMG Group - I've found such flavoured photo of Indian soldiers with VB LMG (instead of a soldier in Mk II helmet and probably Bren) http://www.historicalfirearms.info/p...n-the-original

..I promised three things only, but a wagon icon of 262 Limber might be replaced with a proper limber 2849 or 2848
