The big update operation of the army files to the V3 rules part 3.

I didn't had it planned to have the next army files to be updated so soon. But because of circumstances I couldn't do any painting. So I decided to spent some more of my vacation free time on updating 3 army files. And as promised it are 3 British army files.
Turning Tide - British 6th Airborne Division (3v1.0) Approved
Turning Tide - British Armoured Squadron (3v1.0) Approved
Turning Tide - British Armoured Recce Squadron (3v1.0) Approved
In these files I made some changes to the Anti-Aircraft platoon stats when they fire at aircraft. As you don't need the anti tank value I left that one out now.
What I also included in these files is the stats for self defence Anti-Aircraft guns like the AA MG and the .50 cal AA MG.
Later on I will also make these changes in the files that I have already updated. But because it ain't the most important changes it can wait for the moment.
The links to the files can be found Here.
Or just just click on the Files link under the title-header of the blog.
Oh and let me know if you find an error.

I am sure that the next files that will be updated will take a while because my vacation is almost over. And I haven't done any updating on these army files before the release of the Know Your Enemy book as i had done with the army files updated so far.

Thanks for reading.
