Description
Apart from enhancing the original mod I decided to make some updates for original Nacional campaign in order to make it more likely to playable and accurate.
Originally, during the counterattack on the hill of Pingarrón we had a chance to face the ''Brigada Lincoln'' (according to the mod files and AI Type used in original mod). First of all: there was no ''Abraham Lincoln Brigade'' in the Spanish Civil War. There was only a Lincoln Battalion (and later also Washington Battalion). American Volunteers were a part of XV International Brigade, they never created separate one. The ''Lincoln Brigade'' was just a slogan used by propaganda of CP in order to exagerrate the real number of Americans in Spain. Lincolns weren't also so well armed, as Triby was originally showing (assault troops with submachineguns), but their main weapons were usually Mosins and other types of rifles from Soviet Union, Mexico and in smaller number also from other countries.
Lincoln Battalion saw it's first action on 23th of February 1937, so it wasn't possible in reality to fight against them on 12th of February, when the mission is taking place, so I decided to change them into XI International Brigade and some French volunteers who were having a tough and bloody time during first moments of battle. It will make mission more realistic and historically accurate.
