As far as Mods go. This is probably too far out for most players. You would be right to shun this monstrosity.

Nevertheless, I know someone out there wants this. I don't know who you are. Maybe you want to send it to your wargaming buddy. Anything that can be done will be done. I did it.

Here it is.

Clown Face Mod for MWiF.

You would be surprised with what can be done to mod the game. When you put as little brain power into a mod as i have. Especially for the terrain. I was in an especially inebriated state of mind and came up with a mod not likely to be used. But it does have a charm only a Dr. (Warhunter) Frankenstien could appreciate.

Maybe a Sports Illusrated Mod for MWiF. Pin-ups of WW2 Mod. Tanks of WW2. Yep, I even have one called World in Flames mod for MWiF. If you are thinking how I took pictures of the Sun and used them for terrain, you would be close. Depending on responses. I might leak a screenshot.

What do you think. Is it ready for the public?

Clowns are scary but the others seems interesting.

I am truly impressed by your genius mind.

Seems to have given rise to a strange lag bug which makes my US units reluctant to leave the Walter Reed Army Hospital in Washington.

Shellshock, you have a great idea there. After looking at your 2 nurses. I'm wondering what the French, Italian, British, German, Russian and Chinese nurses look like. What medical implements they might use on my sickly allied and axis units.

You have a gifted eye.

Yes...I'm sure the competition for the beta-testing slots will be intense.

The funny thing is I can almost see the write-up for one of these fictions...

Keep it up Shellshock. Personally i think you have the making of a cast for a comic strip. Nurses play MWiF and discuss rules & strategy along with other topics around a computer screen. 1 nurse for each Major power and a Dr. for the minor nations for balance.

You got me inspired.

Wonderful write ups! Feel free to edit/add to the Japanese nurse however you feel. We do need consistency.

Yes indeed - if you care to do an Italian nurse I think she should be based on a Sophia Loren / Monica Balucci type character - dark hair and large er...assets

If its ok with you Shellshock, I'd like to use the nurses you have made to replace the Pilot counters in game. Your pilot counters were great, the nurses are exciting.

We all know after watching Pearl Harbor, it takes a nurse to keep a pilot flying afterall.

Had to find a suitable counter to replace for these works of art.

Any other choice in the counter mix?

How about Build points? Gives a motivation to save them?

But I suppose they are the same for everybody....Supply units as well.

Factories? Or does this go too far in the comparison?

Engineers!

Hmm - perhaps your pilot proposal is best. Will be hidden from sight from passing spouses most of the time....

The pilot idea is a bust. Not a good choice. Just not that visible and cant zoom in. Tried it hated it.

Using AxelNL, suggestion tried an oil counter. Cuz it was easy to see how it looked. This came out much nicer. What better way to camouflage and remember where your saved oil is. Plus you can zoom in.

Saved build points or oil are probably the best way to go. If you are inclined to have your Hot Nurses in Flames.

btw,
