If I remember correctly, there was a disclaimer on the Military icon set about them being 'under development' and to be 'used at your own risk'.

There may be a way to fix them....if I find one, I'll post it here.

Due to rarity, the MGs might be 'bought out' and not available. I've seen that, where I've bought a company of infantry, seen the MG go red, and only get one of the three I was supposed to get.<br/>

<t>Yes, Gavris....I'd make another entry with the same numbers, and add the extra bombs. Also remember to refigure the weight (carry cost) of the extra-loaded plane. As long as you keep them the same class, they will both show up in the same purchase screen, giving you the opportunity to select ...

<t>The location of the retreat hex and the reinforcement hexes is determined by the date and participants when the map is created. That is, if you set Player One to German, and Player Two to Soviet, in 1942, the German retreat flag will be placed on the left side. If you play a game set in 1944 ...
