All of the sections mentioned converge at the next section reference (346),
however the
illustration text would then not match the section text. I'll hold off adding
the
duplicate illustration links to the XML for now, see if anyone else has
comments first.

I did find a couple of references to "H.E. Grenade" in the other books, it's
probably
going to be worthwhile updating all of them to H.E. for consistency. Again,
I'll hold
off until I get further comments.

Yes, quite... ;)

I certainly wouldn't have noticed it if I hadn't been told about it.

Yes, got them, I'll stick them in with my scans. While my FW2 scans will be
replaced
with decent hi-res versions later, the ones I did are fine for getting the
layout and
look and feel.

All done, had to enter them by hand but only took a few minutes.

I did take a brief look at them, didn't make much of an effort to filter them
though, its
on my ToDo list.
I also have ideas about improvements to FWAC gathered from re-reading the
books. But
that can wait until later.
Iain.
