I have swallows of Death in hand. Generally, it looks pretty good. Someday I will get it and the units into the library and into Vassal. The irritant is the Moroccan Tirailleurs.
They look like this:

The Moroccan Escadrons look like this:


I'm thinking they should share the same library slot, with appropriate heading changes.

If they are different in the scenarios' printed OOBs then they should be listed separately in the library, lazy artwork or not.

The Moroccan ESC pieces were published by AP at a time when they wanted them to be elite. As the only French elite units in Fall of France were ESC 4-3 units, the choice was obvious. However, the squadron (escadron) term is devoted to cavalry not to infantry (the equivalent is Company). I chose Tirailleurs (hence TIR) which is the proper term for African units.

Peter---first image did not come through--at least for me...
