Unfortunate Son's counters

[HarrySmith]

They look fantastic. Well done

[OxfordGuy3]

Will it be possible to use these counters instead of the stock game's graphical sprites (instead of replacing the counters)? I'm afraid I still generally prefer NATO counters for clarity (I use the wonderful ones SPIRES made: https://www.matrixgames.com/forums/view ... 3&t=321032), but would be nice to be able to easily switch back and forth between those and Unfortunate Son's (very well done) graphical counters.

OxfordGuy3... Yes that is the goal. When I have a complete set you will be able to switch from the vanilla nato counters to my counters. The counters I am creating are a hybrid between nato & sprites. I am aware of Sipres counters. His counters inspired me to make my own counters. I just completed the Polish counters and will display them in the next day or so. All I have left is the US counters and I will have a complete set for SC-WIE. I have already started the US counters. Then I will work on the Chinese and Japanese counters for Sc-WAW.

Thanks for the complement regarding my counters.

That's great! I'm only actually playing SC-WIE games currently, so hopefully will get a chance to use your counters soon!

They look great as your usual standard. Well done

Here's a video featuring Unfortunate Son's latest work and an example of game play as the Germans attack Poland.

Absolutely great! All in order as it should be!
In polish we say: "Mucha nie siada". I am looking forward for release!

Hi!
What is your next move with counters? You did massive work with major powers, but there are minors left...I guess you need to do Norwegians, Hungarians, Romanians, Finns, Greeks, Yugoslavians... It's still a lot of work, but you may use some of yours previous designs, and just change colors, especially for artillery pieces and some tanks and aircraft. From all above mentioned nations, which ofc, infantry might be design with some particularity(maybe caps instead for helmets for Finns and Norwegians?), there are not much "original" equipment. I guess Hungarians first level tanks was their original production, but later they switched to German tanks and aircraft. Romania also in this way...so I guess It won't be that hard, as I said, mostly infantry units require some slight individualization.
What are your plans? Give us some hint please!

(huge fan of your work)
PS
I forgot, the Americans are not done yet. Anyway, we are all patient and awaiting

[HarrySmith]

Yes mentioning minors, the Aussies wore slouch hats. Great job and a bit of a never-ending task.

Hi,
Unfortunate Son, you might consider changing the polish red-white "chesboard" as a national symbol. It looks cool, but actually it is a symbol of Polish Air Force, not Armed Forces. Armed forces symbol is a silver-white eagle with crown. I made my own for Polish-Soviet MOD and it looks like this:

Hi Jazon, I can change it. Can you PM your file and I will see if I can use it or at least take what I need regarding the Eagle.

These counters are stunning. Maybe I missed it, but I looked through every post of this thread. Is there already a download to play with this great work?

Thanks briklebritt. I should have a complete set very soon for SC-WIE

[bssybeep]

Are these counters available for download?

Are these counters available for download?

Thanks for your interest bssybeep!!!
They will be very shortly. I am in the final stages of putting them together and making final tweaks.
Not sure how long it will take for the developer/ Matrix to work their magic.

I have completed the set of counters for SC-WiE and have given the developers the final files. Hopefully they will be in an upcoming patch!!! SC-WaW should follow soon!!!

[Unfortunate Son]

Like I mention at the beginning of this forum and in the previous post I have completed a counter set for SC-WiE.
I have given the developers my final files, hopefully they will be in an upcoming patch soon!!!
