Thought I will post a status on the campaign I'm working on and with ThePlodder great help, I just finished the US/West German User Data spreadsheet and will start tomorrow on the Soviet/East German User Data spreadsheet. Will post tomorrow as well a screenshot of both units on the same map.

Looking forward to seeing it!

Quick question, I have the US, WG, and the Soviet color for the counters, I'm trying to think what color should the East Germans have for their counter? Any ideas?

[JohnOsb]

My screenshot looks like its going to have to wait until this Friday. Just when you thought you have everything ready there is always something you forget to do [8|] I forgot to finish the formation sheet in the Allies Data Spreadsheet. Working on it right now. I did a quick test and noticed the problem. I also see US and West German vehicles and equipment at the same time on the map [:D]

Maybe the yellow/gold color of the bottom stripe of the DDR flag?

[JohnOsb]

good idea, will look at it, thanks.

Regarding ideas for counter colours, I'd stay within the Red colour spectrum for Warsaw Pact, so at a glance you would know what is NATO or WP. Soviet Units are already Red, I'd make other WP units 'Burnt Orange' ,'Burgundy' (dark orange & Dark Red).
Belgian, Dutch, Canadian units I'd make any shade of Khaki/Olive Green.
French could be a pale Blue

I at first thought that it would take until this Friday to fix my problems. But with ThePlodder very fast response to help me.
I'm able to post the results. As you can also see the units are on the same map at the same time [:)]

Its starting to look very good. See the screenshots below.

First screenshot showing the US tank plt.



Second screenshot showing WG tank plt.

Thanks, my work is still not done, I have to finish up on the NATO Forces formations and then start working on the WP unit data spreadsheet, work is never done [:D]

[JohnOsb]

Quick question about the scenario editor. I'm just about done with the US forces and will start on the West German forces and was wondering, on how I can do a refresh for units I had to make changes to the database?
For example, I made the forces and place them on the map and noticed that I forgot a unit or equipment that they are suppose to carry. I make the changes to the NATO database load up the scenario in the Scenario Editor and noticed that I can't see any of the changes to it unless I completely remove the units from the map and then have to reload the units back unto the map.
Was wondering if there could be a simple thing like refresh and the units that was made changes to them will update them.

On the screen where you can load a scenario file, there is a button for "Refresh underlying scenario data"

I'll be dam [:)] learn something every day.
