Appears to be two Renault-FT-17s, a Schneider Tank and that Fiat tank you posted a little while ago.

One of them is not a Renault-17 take a closer look at the gun.

Kind of small -- is it the license built US version (M1917 I think they called it)?

Turret looks a little larger -- is it the variant that had the short 75mm gun? (FT-bs)

Warmer/Colder?

The FT-17 had variants for MGs only, a short 37mm gun, and a 75mm howitzer.  I suppose it could be the 37mm version, then.  There was also a command version without any gun.  It looks like there is a gun there, but I am having a hard time deciding if it is a gun or a trick of the light/angle.

Taking a cue from the big Italian tank to the right, I suppose it could be the Italian version of the FT-17 which was the Fiat-3000.

If none of those, I will wait for Blooz to come back.

Another FT-17, this one the TSF version (command tank).  No armament other than the wireless morse telegraph.

Nope. :) The ID was requested from you, not the general membership. ;)
