You guys should put a shot like this up on the games website page.

I had next to no interest in buying this title based upon the screenshots shown there.

Until I saw this screenshot. Somehow for me this game looks so much better with the hexlines and classic counters. Some sort of nostalgic sickness or whatever.

Normally Id probably prefer the more "modern" graphics but A. if the detail for those units is good its just not coming across that way in the screenshots B. its a bit too SC2 looking for me.. and C. Since the current map is a little vanilla looking it just seems to have a really nice clean look to me with the classic counter set.

Anyway at least I know if I dont end up caring for the original graphics set (and I very well may) I can definitely enjoy this classic style one.

Will probably buy soon..

Actually, as long as we are picking nits, wouldn't it be more correct to say that Battlecruisers sacrificed protection for speed?

At the scale of this game does it really matter?

Scharnhorst and Gneisenau were closer to Battleships than Battlecrusiers. They could take more punishment than most battleships of that time but had weak armament. Battlecrusiers sacrificed protection for firepower. It was always planned for Scharnhost and Gneisenau to have their 11 inch guns replaced with 15 inch guns but it never happened.

I completely concur. The screenshot of those counters make the game look 5 times better graphically. I never bought SC2 because its graphics were not my style. Now all we need are a couple of AARs to flesh out how much horsepower this game has.
