Is there a FW 190 "Dora" counter?

Why would you have individual ships but glob land units all together in corps? Nevermind, too big a subject for here.
Warspite1

Yes- I'll see if I can post one.

I'll help out with a picture from the future pool with two FW 190 "Dora" counters.

Weren't deployed in big enough units for this game, I would guess . . .

Hmmmm . . . I'm very partial to the Luftflotte Reich schemes I see, but I'm liking the F-8 as well . . .

Like a woman in a shoe store, I want them all . . .

My advice fwiw: take your time. Its good to keep the same avatar - its like your identity so you want the right one.

Speaking of which (Warspite finding it hard to use the keyboard now as he visibly starts to shake; a violent tirade of abuse pours forth from his mouth, contorting that unfeasibly handsome visage).
Its like racing drivers. I mean what the hell is going on? Most of them nowadays keep changing their helmet designs. NO!

So will Froonp be providing you one to upload?

Out of interest - why not a US counter?

Totally unacceptable.

When I first got into F1 I remember reading an article by a photographer. He said that the crash helmet designs reminded him of Knights of old who would have their coat of arms on their shield as they were about to enter battle - it was their identity. Don't get me wrong, I am not going to get all overboard about this subject; I am just going to write a letter to Bernie Ecclestone stating that I think that any driver who wants to change their helmet design should be shot.

2). Open wheel (F1, etc.) helmets are much more visible so I see your gripe. For me (NASCAR) its more the body of the car itself. They gotta go with the money, or they can forget it. The days of an independent team are over, I'm afraid, if you want to win.

Hard to answer. I love my country, but I've always been partial to German and UK militaria, units, histories, etc. The pageantry, I guess, and the traditions. Does that make sense? Not that we haven't developed traditions of a sort over here, it's just not the same.

Crazy, I know.

A leeetle play on words. The piccy was of the helmet of Nigel "Red 5", "Our Nige", "Il Leone" Mansell. However, in a "hilarious" play on words in the first post, I put a picture of Helmut Shoen (the ex-German football manager)

No, not crazy - I suspect we've all got a little admiration - grudging or otherwise - for the German armed forces of WWII (politics aside).

I don't know; maybe I won't get it. Not familiar with those counters, but I can't imagine that div. not being represented. . . Is that a corps level game? Orm has a divisional level unit in his avatar (XX).

I have a division because in the Swedish and Finnish forests the ski troops ruled during the winter. And the Nordic countries had the best ski troops. And a lot of forests and other terrain where it was impossible to get motorized units. Here is a picture of two vigilant Swedish volunteers (soldiers) during the Finnish Winter War.

I've read in a couple of other threads that people have had trouble uploading a avatar. I suspect that at times there can be issues with this.
