When I find someone like that, I love to play vs them for real $.  You should try it!

Anything but this stupid "Chevalier" that make no more sense whatever than the light blue coloring (at least we aren't got the lys flower anymore...).

BTW the only important Chevalier related to WWII is the singer...

'1er Grpe Cuirassé'

or '1er Cuirassé' if that is too long, technically this unit could be named 'Keller' as it is the name of the commanding officier and it regroup 2 of the french 4 DCR. But I wonder if the name isn't taken by an HQ ...

There is no French arm named '1er Cuirassé' in the countermix, but this one has it in its writeup.

Or, did I misunderstood the fact we could edit the counter in the files in MWiF ?

No missunderstanding from you, counters can be edited from the files in MwiF.
Though I won't do that, because it is also possible to rename units from within the game.
I'll do that tonight.

I'll do that tonight.

Just in case this wasn't clear, ...

there are two ways to do this:
1 - change the unit's name in the data file, and
2 - rename a unit while playing a game.

Patrice will use the second method for taking the screen shot of the unit with the modified name.

Here it is.
Please be carefull to save it as a GIF file, so that it keeps the transparency information that allow it to look like it have rounded corners. If you're in double, send me an email and I'll send it back to you as an attachment.

GIF is for the forums only. Can you post PNG to the forum ?

All graphics in MWIF are 24 bit.

Ahh I understand now.  Yes you are right, when I was trying to set up an avatar I noticed the same strangeness, for some reason the standard PNG is not permitted.  O_o  So I then went with an old Gif format.  I guess this may be easily fixable by a forum admin.

This is the radar, as this is the night fighter version of the Me262.

I don't know how to do the transparency either, though it might be the limitations of the software I am using.
