I always wondered why the developers of BK cut corners. They have the Battle of the Bulge being fought in late fall so that they didn't have to produce winter textures for the Allied equipment and the European houses. They didn't bother giving the earlier US equipment African (Tunisian) textures. Then they left some African textures out of the German equipment.
I have included in my personal update to BK the vonScheff Afrika Korps textures. At least that gives me a PzKw II that can show up in the Western Desert. What I am still missing are some African textures for the 75mm PaK 40 and the 20mm AA gun.
Somewhere I have encountered a texture mod that gives these units African textures. Does anyone recall which one?

Sure, SJ. Gleefully and gratefully accepted.
Sometimes I wonder about my memory. The 75mm PaK 40 was used at El Alamein and even before, was it not? Why was it left out of the desert scheme? And the PzKw II? I have a picture of Rommel watching what it says is the first tank being unloaded from a ship in Tripoli for his Afrika Korps. Guess what? It's a PzKw II!
After all, Afrika Korps got the leftovers. They didn't get long-barrelled PzKw III's and IV's until about a year after they were in production.
