Was even considering maybe just red and blue counters, or at least a very simple cardboard style parred right back.

working my way through the resources...

towns being erased and replaced...
The yellow back ground is not the map colour.
The hex grid is just a reference overlay.
The round dots are not staying.
Some smaller towns will probably be SPI grey-blue. just for some diversity.

Looking forward to this. So different from what my mod tried to achieve. You have any counters yet?

First the map.
Then the units.
At some point I'd like to actually PLAY this game.

Do you have an idea what the counters should look like? Maybe there is a picture of a counters sheet on the net that you want to go for?

Not specifically.
I played A LOT of Operation Cobra and others from Strategy and Tactics Magazine.
So I will be looking through the counter scans at BoardGameGeek for inspiration.
The focus for me is taking the glossy shine off the counters. I want them to look like cardboard, with a hint of drop shadow on the map.
I don't expect to radically change the graphics. I prefer nato counters, although I have done figured ones previously, but people get obsessed about silhouettes needing to reflect tech levels etc...
and as I said, at some point I just want to play instead of push pixels.
