You have a very good recollection! There was a British version as well:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arab_Legion. That's why I gave all the different names for those units, so you could choose from them, because I didn't know if the German translations would cause confusion. And I am a huge perfectionist, sorry about that. I don't mind at all leaving the name as it is now, it is perfectly clear.

BTW, do you still need comments about some ugly escarpment hex graphics on some maps? Because they were fixed for the early maps, I'm not sure if I have to keep reporting them for the later maps or just assume the next beta(?) will have them fixed in the later maps as well.

Yes, next beta will have them all fixed.

Check the new icons for pumping stations in Beta 4 and overall attack on them should be somehow different.

Sorry fore my late response, altough it's not really a problem I think. You now have pipeline pumping stations that look like oil well pumps.

I have attached a foto of a real pumping station from the Mosul-Haifa oil pipeline for reference, that is why I commented earlier that the radar building without the antenna would make a good pumping station. 99.999% of people wouldn't notice, the new icon is unmistakably oil-related, so it's fine.

I know, whole point is in differentiation of icons which confused people. Pumping stations only helped in oil flow. Icon is probably taken from stock in some other game.

Yes, this is very clear for players, better than some grey box in the desert.
