Artillery: 105mm - Celery Green - United Kingdom (Revised 2004)

I ordered these specifically to give my A&A 1940 2nd ed. China its own artillery, as opposed to using US artillery as the rules mention. The colour match looks exact to me. Perhaps in perfect white light there may be a slight difference. Grab it when you can as it HBG gets it in stock if and when they snag some 2004 copies.

Let's face it: When playing Pacific 1940 or Global 1940, nobody likes using American artillery pieces to represent China's artillery units. This color is MUCH closer to China's infantry color, so I recommend ordering some of these and using them instead. I can only muster 4 stars, though, because it's a little lighter than the Chinese Infantry that it'll fight alongside.

I really like the celery green units, they can be played in some game versions instead of the tan/khaki/blonde of the UK, or in larger, more complex games, you can use them as a UK subset, such as Canadian units. This works well for that.
