First of all I want to thank Frank Hunter for excellent game, it's my "all time favourite". I made some counters from old french war magazine and maybe somebody would like to use them, so I'm posting a screenshot and dowload link with some of them. The archive contains french, german, russian, british and austro-hungarian infantry counter(I've got more if someone wants it)

Now I'm going back to the most enjoyable game

PS. thanks to GJK for beautiful map!

Which French uniform should be represented.

The 1914 red pantaloon dark blue, the sky blue kepi, or the latter years sky blue helmeted??

The same question for the German pikelhaub vs. the Coal kettle helmets.


Would be neat if it could change from year-to-year.

Thanks. Actually, this is an original italian uniform!(the french one is italian but reworked). They look very similar I guess, so I can just use the second italian uniform model(with feathers, less common?) for this counter... or I will use original french uniform picture...The one with feathers looks better?
"German" artillery if anybody interested:

In your counters it's easy to fix: just cancel the turnbacks and color the belts and pouches black.

So, here's a link to upgraded pack(some tweaks in american, turkish, french, italian counter, arty for Austria and Germany, new, rather better austrian infantry look)

CLICK HERE!

and thanks once more!

Soon I'll place an update for my "mod", and here are some of the new counters(including "Ultimate German Soldier Counter"!)if anybody interested:

Status: offline 		Thanks hjaco, Punk Reaper.
Here's what to do if you want these graphics in game:
1. Click on the link in my previous post(underlined Version 1.0)
2. Save Counters.rar to your HD
3. Unrar downloaded Counters.rar with WinRar for example, to your game folder or or unrar it and than paste unrared folder to your game folder, it will rewrite existing counters.

GOA is great indeed, thanks Frank Hunter once more!

PS. I'm still working on it, see you at the "1.1." release
