Thank you for the quick reply. I look forward to the game. I know you were looking for this game to be similar to ASL which uses top down Tank graphics. Any designer insight on the style of the graphics you picked and why? Just curious. I am looking forward to this title and plan on adding this title to my collection.
Thanks

The simple reason being that, there are 95 Ordnance and 162 vehicles in the game, so that's 257 images to start with. So if I would go with the drop down design, I would need in total 257 x 6 = 1542 images this does not even include the 6 different graphics images for a turret for a vehicle. There are quite a few tanks with turrets in the game, It's just too much effort and time. If I would go with top down view of ordnance and vehicles then I think support weapons and all personnel counters should be top down as well - I simply didn't want to go down this path.


If you make this a mod-able feature your players will do the work for you. Think about it, it will make the game better.
I'll be back
