This is my VASL terrain and counters mod.
It is JSGME (JoneSoft Generic Mod Enabler) compatible, if not using it please backup your Terrain.png file.

The zip file contains three versions of my mod: v1.1, v1.1 with small markers, v1.1 with small markers and original terrain.

Great work!,
Though I think German Elites should be 4-6-8.

So is this an ASL style mod with TotH correct values on the counters?
Update: Nope, just different style counters. Still pretty though!

One thing that I've changed with this mod and the ASL one is making the Fire Counters much smaller. That way don't entirely obstruct the unit counters so you can still see what unit had fired. I did leave the 1 pixel edge on the bottom and right sides so that you can tell at a glance if units in a stack fired. Changed this for all the 'full size' circle things like Fire, Final Fire, Close Combats and Tired. Still debating if I like the banners of the ASL mod or the letters of this one though for things like Pinned and Broken.
Basically just cut the counter out (sans the 1 pixel edges bottom and right), pasted it right back where it was and shrunk it down to 30x30 and nudged it into the top left corner. Attached you can see how it looks.

I like this a lot. One thing I always hated in ASL was the counter clutter (fire, etc.) that covered the actual units.
Anyway you could make it available for mod incompetents like me?

Don't want to step on JMass' toes since it's his mod, but I have no problem providing an edited version for him (or just you if that's OK with him).

Just played Tutorial 2 with this mod and loved it!
1 Observation - The MMG on the USA side was represented by an LMG Counter.

This is because the American side doesn't technically have an LMG. There's the Medium and two Heavy's - the M1917 and the .50cal. So technically "Medium MG" is the "LMG" of the American forces. See page 57 of the Manual.

Dear JMass, Richie61, Kylania,
could you please give me a quick explanation how to do the mods in Photoshop?
- do I "just"change the pictures at the same spot of the big terain.png?
- how do I save it? Any special safe parameters?
Thanks a lot!
Dietrich
