Good catch! It's also missing in all the other languages besides Russian:

unit_1184 = PzKw. 38(t) E
unit_1340 = QF 2 Pounder
unit_1339 = 40mm Bofors

I am French but I always play in English. There are always problems of translation for the games generally.

How true.... :D
Only the "big" games usually do some passable localizations...

:!: But to be fair, I think the German translations in OoB are quite well made!

Thx for reporting. Usually an easy thing to fix.

I am playing Minsk at the moment and here is what I've noticed about the German text which doesn't fit the trigger settings:
-Destroy 60 Soviet ground untis (instead of 80 units)
-Complete the mission in 35 turns (instead of 30 turns)
-Capture Slonim in 20 turns (instead of 10 turns)

In the Editor especially or in the Game, it is impossible to distinguish variants of the same unit. Impossible to make the difference by the name or by the image in the Editor.
It can create bugs when we use the Editor like that was the case for me (Spawn Unit) :evil:

Right about trouble distinguishing these units. AT-modes are still obvious, but less so the swim and rail modes which I'm going to add in parenthesis.

No unit should have strictly the same name as an other one, it can be misleading.
