And the American at mine and offensive grenade?
Yes, in a pickup at the farm in place of the Drilling, when brits cap (villers bocage map)
That pickup kit has the most stuff in it (it is listed in there, in the "pickup kits" section). ;)

Is it only me, but all document images are weirdly stretched and not displayed into native pixel ratio?

I can finally say that this looks good without cringing too much. It's a great improvement, but it's still rough around the edges.

Thank you,
I suggest you need to put "quick links" also into the PG. ;D

Tell me what needs to be done or errors need to be corrected, because it is hard to look through or correct errors around a 600 page PDF! :D

*I know there is a main error= some text in the "navigation" are a bit too big because if i did it in normal text, the text and images go funny for some odd reason.

Nice work, lots of information. The visuals do need some work though, you might want to find big enough old paper texture instead of tiling the small one to fill the area. Also those vehicle images that are snatched from the FH2 site look horribly pixelated. If you have time you could have new screenshots for them from maps that would be good enough resolution.

Why Italian planes belong to Germany?

That is very true, look on El Alamein (MC 202) and Gazala (MC 200).
Italians do not use planes currently in FH2.
Same thing as you see Brits use the M1 Carbine (pickup kit) and Italians (on keren) have the Pattern 14 sniper rifle as a pickup kit, etc... ;)

As you see on the fh2 "stuff" site they do not cover that, and that is why i wanted to show that other countries in fh2 do use other weapons from other countries.

The M1Carbine is a mistake though, as the original tournament map of villers bocage had historically incorrect kits. In the first version the Brits also had a BAR kit and some other stuff, but those were noticed and replaced.
