Hard to see fog of war

Playing Norway, especially during bad weather, I'm finding it hard to distinguish hexes hidden in fog of war from visible hexes.

Is there any parameter that could be altered for more contrast?

Otherwise, it's all very good indeed..... [:D]

Try adjusting the contrast and brightness on your monitor.

Alas we did not make an option for this, but you can modify the Graphics/Overlays/smoothFoW.png file to make it darker as you like. Or maybe somebody on the forum can help with this. Should be pretty easy to do in Photoshop.

O'k, how about this:

Please display "FOW" in addition to the already existing terrain mouse over info (terrain type and coordinates) that is displayed below the unit buttons on the right hand panel whenever the hex is indeed in FoW. [:)]
