Did I mention I don't like these "weren't even still around by WWII" ghost units?

At least they existed. I'd take these over the units that never made it past drawings.

And I don't know if you noticed my comment, but this should be a neutral unit, no?

It is neutral now and I revised the text to explain the change in armament.

Too late. We decided in the earlier deck to use the existing Air Force roundel (like the Australians) and put the Republican or Nationalist flag on the back. We didn't want to confuse players with two different roundels representing the same nation. Besides, this is a WWII game and the Spanish civil war was over. The inclusion of Spanish Civil War units was also decided during selection as an "extension" of WWII. Plus the people that wanted to include Spain just want it. So don't try to get too logical about it.

You're right, the current Red/Yellow/Red roundel was set at the end of civil war, with the black cross tail fin inherited from Franco air force. So that makes the teams choice consistent and historically accurate, as WW2 started after that point.
I should have checked better

Also, change Jamie to Jaime in the last reference. Otherwise I think it is good.
