For those interested in such things...

I was reading http://www.amazon.com/History-Royal-Reg ... re+1941-46 and noticed Annex P, which details East and West African Artillery Order of Battle in the Far East.

It mainly lists the artillery units integral to the East and West African Divisions assigned to the theatre. However it also includes some AA units that I do not see in scenario 1 (or 28). These are:

14th West African AA Brigade (August 1943, which I assume is arrival in India)
. 1st HAA Regiment, West African Frontier Force
.. 1st (WA) HAA Battery
.. 2nd (WA) HAA Battery
.. 14th (WA) HAA Battery
. 2nd HAA Regiment, West African Frontier Force
.. 5th (WA) HAA Battery
.. 6th (WA) HAA Battery
.. 308th (WA) HAA Battery
. 3rd HAA Regiment, West African Frontier Force
.. 4th (WA) HAA Battery
.. 251st (WA) HAA Battery
.. 405th (RA) HAA Battery
. 4th HAA Regiment, West African Frontier Force
.. 7th (WA) HAA Battery
.. 8th (WA) HAA Battery
.. 313th (WA) HAA Battery

and

15th (East African) HAA Regiment
.. 153rd (EA) HAA Battery
.. 154th (EA) HAA Battery
.. 155th (EA) HAA Battery

They are in scen 1

Except for 15th which was removed as part of balancing act regarding how many indpt AA regts to include and how may are de facto represented by inherant AA in base forces = technically its on map as part of 231st Group RAF Base Force

My soiurce was Routledge Offical History of the Royal Arty - Anti Aircraft

Basically the Regt is the organic HAA allocated to the RAF Group Base Force (I sent you the full list Don)

Yup, there they be! Thank you Sir.

I was all excited about adding them in [:@]

Me too. Oh well - ignorance is bliss (I said happily).

Does "Nevermind!!" mean the same as ignore? If so, this thread is going to grow.

Or does it mean......disregard?
