Actually, one thing does seem odd. In the British Africa list you have A13s and Grants.

By the time the Grants arrive, it would be more likely to be alongside Crusaders rather than the A13, wouldn't it?

Yep this is a marketing ploy by the Dark Lord. (although I know that's not Pendrakens style,-  But you have to take the chance to poke fun where you can )

When you buy this pack you need to buy 3 crusaders to go with the Grants, and 3 Mk V1's to go with the A13's.  so he sells another 6 tanks

Rivets 'r us: http://theminiaturespage.com/news/talk/msg.mv?id=245126542 ... can't believe the Pz2E was suggested and not the Pz3F!! I'll not sleep all night thinking about this.

The differences mentioned on Wikipedia, not the most reliable scource I know

Panzer II Ausf. F
Continuing the conventional design of the Ausf. C, the Ausf. F superstructure front was made from a single piece of armour plate with a redesigned visor. Also, a dummy visor was placed next to it to confuse enemy gunners. The hull was redesigned with a flat 35 mm (1.4 in) plate on its front, and the armour of the superstructure and turret were built up to 30 mm (1.2 in) on the front with 15 mm (0.59 in) to the sides and rear. There was some minor alteration of the suspension and a new commander's cupola as well. Weight increased to 9.5 tonnes. From March 1941 to December 1942, 524 were built; this was the final major tank version of the Panzer II series.

If you can really spot any of this  at 3 feet in 10mm  I would be surprised.   As you say some people need to get a life

Ah, the Panzer IIE was a completely different tank, with large road wheels, same as the Panzer IID, that was later used as the basis for the Flammpanzer II. It was never used in North Africa.

Which was probably why the TMP-er was so aroused, it was a bit more than anal rivet counting

And, as he pointed out, Pendraken only make the F version. Didn't come across as aroused to me, just pointing out a minor error in the army list?
