Default Two Blue OOB Errors

I had a look at Blue and found two errors.

The first is obvious from the image


The other one is less so. It is unit 355 Nimbus with the (excellent) Madsen 20 mm AT gun. This was first employed by the Danish Army in 1938, not 1940. Source http://www.armyvehicles.dk/nimbusmc_20mmmg.htm

Thanks for your effort.

I cannot edit it seems, though I would like to, as the pic does not work. You can see it here.

Blue is not the Danish army, so the in service date is right for the entirely fictional Blue forces.

As to the other one - why not give us the unit number so we can actually figure out what you are talking about?

Blue is a fictional army and is meant to be edited - so feel free to hack your own version to act as the Danish, if so required.

Keep clicking EDIT until it catches.....sometimes takes awhile. The "photo" you sent is unreadable give us a unit number and as Andy says that OOB represents nothing real..it's a holding place for things.....I have tucked away to German aircraft for scenarios and a Croatian fiat 50....there's a Horten Ho 229 if you want to surprise someone in a PBEM........

I am well aware Blue is not Denmark, but there was only one country which used Nimbus and Madsen, so whatever it is meant to be, it can only be a Danish carriage.

The pic shows Blue slot 900; a Pz 38 set to Nation - 16 Germany and very red for that reason.

Yes.... that is correct and it was done deliberately..... and why it's marked the way it is with Greater than and Less than angle brackets around the name.... it's not an "error" and needs no correction. It does not show up in the game and that's what was intended. I put it there " on hold" and it's why it's off by itself like it is. It has NOTHING to do with the Blue OOB

I see, very evident. I should have known that of course. Thanks for the polite explanation.

The nimbus is now 1938 but I'll be surprised if anyone notices

...by the way, I wondered, why Fiat G.50 can't just go to Yugo OOB, which also contains some Croatian and Ustase stuff...
