Other than its a Canadian counter, what is different about the counter? Will modders love this new feature?
Inquiring minds want to know.

Well, the image is small and I don't have my glasses on but maybe the counter background image?

With that change we better point it out or people will miss it. Much ado about very little?

Good Hunting.

The Maple Leaf, I assume (the background image). Hard to see on that scale. I was hoping that maybe Canadians wouldn't be green. Just something, more Canadian. White and red? Maple syrup colored?

RED AND WHITE???????????

You mean like Russian colors?????

Red on white background. Maroon. I'm just an old school guy who loved colorful counters in games. Counter sheets were always more important to me than the maps. I'm sure most people will prefer the green.

Well, we are going to have national symbols in counters... some stars, dots etc etc, a good add but maybe as i usual see on this things is better give the option to have them or not, sometimes i prefer plain counters over elaborated.

maybe for my taste allways counter colours are a problem because for example for me germans are "grey" or "light grey" (well East Germany is "dark grey") and british "dark brown" for example (i see orange more for other WP nations maybe Poland or Cz...), i see as a good add to game the optionsto select the counter colours in same way you can select colours in highlights over maps.

Apart this ... OLALA DLC is coming??? maybe we can see it when the fat red old pervert try enter in our homes [:D]

The ability to give formation and movement orders to HQ units, as seen with the arrowhead formation of the tank units???

I think they refer only to the counter art improvement (maybe a texture you add over counter??? i refer you have counter and over counter image) but a way to give orders to formations using HQ... is a good point to, maybe introducion in a far future formations, you not only give the order you can select the formation and this reduce micromanegement and give to HQ more value, lose one and you work a lot more with mouse [;)]

The White counter with Red is the Polish colours..so green will be fine..I can't see the counter background that well.. sure modders will be delighted..here is what i did with the Squad Battles counters.

Very good New.....[:)]

Love the new look Capt. Very WaW looking.... [:)]

I always saw the Soviets as more Reddish Orange . . . . [8D]

Does this mean I will need to change my avatar? [;)]

Nice to play as Canadians! I don't really notice anything except the Maple Leaf. Out of curiosity, would you be using First Clash by Kenneth Macksey as a basis/source for Canadian scenarios and or campaigns?

Thanks

Does a map of Kuppenheim qualify?

Keep in mind that most of the battles he describes are company vs battalion level fights. That would be 4 units of Canadians vs 4 units of Soviets.

If we were to do anything with First Contact it would more than likely be the entire books worth of actions in a single scenario.

Sorry about that. I did not notice the map of Kuppenheim lol.

Thanks

That's because I'm in the process of making that map as we speak! [:D]

It's easy to see just how small his actions in the book are when you put Kuppenheim on our scale of map! [X(]

Hi, I'm very curios what the status of the Rastatt map and Canadian OOB is. I had the impression that both would have been included in a patch or addon by now.

We don't add new nationalities to patches.

Those come in full game expansions.

Good Hunting.
