My response was to a contentless post by Monty. At the SPWW1 yahoo groups site you will find an India/South Africa orbat, an Australia/Rhodesia orbat, a Netherlands/Rebel Boers (vir Beyerse Opstand) orbat, and a Portuguese Orbat. Astonish me!. All are for ver 7.0 SP colormods has a British orbat in progress.

Great suggestion baggypants. I will indeed begin splitting the units up as you suggested. Thanks for the compliment about my list. I will endeavour to astonish.

I've been crusing around this forum for awhile...thought it was time for me to join in

First off, I'd like to say that I've been playing SP since I was 13, when I randomly recieved it for Christmas the year it was first released. It's one game I always seem to come back to, no matter how far I stray (I had a brief "hippy" faze in high school, yet I couldn't keep away from SP ).

One thing that has always interested me was seeing WWI on SP...then, the other day, I stumbled upon this post (as well as a few others) and thought I'd make a suggestion...whether it be helpful or not is something I can't say.

I'm sure some that will see this may have played Close Combat before. Their was a mod made for CCIII (the russian front) that dealt with the great war and all (as well as an amazing Vimy mod...but I digress).
What I was wondering is if the unit info from that mod would be of any help what-so-ever in creating WWI oobs, as far as unit names, crew, armament, etc.

I'm sure others have better research material, but it's the first thing I thought off when reading the posts.

And why haven't I started any work of my own on this whole mess? Well, even though I've been playing since it's release, I've never tried my hand at the creating and such. Maybe it's time?

Cheers
