Interesting detail - on counters I can see small removable counters which represent strength just like in classic games. I like the map, too!

Just like your work for WW2-ToW, this is really good, I am waiting for these mods before I get deeply into this game. Can't wait. [:)]

Now THOSE ae the counter and maps styles I was always hoping to see offered. Thank you. I notice you've kept the original "very shiny" style counters for the IJA forces.
While I understand that this makes visual separation easy, they still distract from their task of conveying game information. (Sorry, Wastelands devs, but I haven't been fond of the glossy counters).
Agent S:
I think the blue of the rivers and swamps might be just a skosh too pale. If there's a reason to keep them that colour, perhaps add a darker edging?

This one is really outstanding.
I can't wait to see more and more new modifications changing the game to better fit players vision.
BTW: You all know there is a possibility to adjust and even completely change look and position of every window and its component?

Great look to both map and counters. Eagerly awaited.
If I could make one suggestion on the map - if this is in your control - please incorporate the feature that they have in the 'normal' map, whereby names of sea zones etc are visible even when zooming way out.

Sorry to disagree but I like the map colours, as they will make a good contrast with the counter colours. It's the Nationalist Chinese counters that are still glossy, but I guess that is because this is still a work in progress, I expect that they will change. The map shades should not be too strong, because there are a lot of different nations' counters to be accommodated and the different coloured counters will need to stand out against the map.
I do agree that this is looking like a good set and just what the game needs. [:)]

Yey! Non-shiny counters. More easier to eyeball.
BTW, can we still have the div and corps 'X's?

Everyone is different.
I only like the planes.
I assume that if I DL the counters that I can just install the planes.
I have a different Mod for TOW where I like the planes alot. They are bigger and have a machine gun firing for each level.
Good work, waiting to see more.

I am also waiting. Downloaded and played, but the graphics (map and counters) are too 'modern' for my taste. I like it when a WW2 game looks like it was designed during WW2

We need to be able to toggle the unit names on and off.
Next patch please.

You can, I forgot the hot key.
Hit Escape, Preferances, Units and turn the name off

I know it is in the dialog box, it's not a hotkey.
Switching unit names off is more important than seeing how much ap is left in a hex.
