So I took Bob's The Next War which is based on SPI's 1979 board game and have already recolored that one. So today I went ahead and tried the same with his Campaign for North Africa scenario which is also based on the original board game by SPI. I had to jump through a few hoops to make it work for some reason. I had to rename the scenario and create a folder for it but in the end I think looks pretty neat.

I think I have about half a dozen of these I have tweaked lol.

Here I modified 2nd Battle of Kharkov to use the old SPI 1978 colors:



And here I modified Ardennes 1944 to use the old SPI 1973 Ardennes Offensive counters colors:



And here I modified Bulge 44 to use a mixture of colors from both early and later SPI colors:

Nice colors, Zovs!

Cheers

Thanks, I know some clamor for a ton of bmp sheets to edit/use but using XML and recoloring the counters is really the way to go man.

Wow, Don, those are incredible. RR tiles are the best.
Could you send me what I need for the Ardennes 1944?

Any chance you could work your magic on a Vietnam Combat Operations countersheet with RF (Regional Force), BDQ (Ranger), and CIDG icons. I realize TOAWIV can read only one countersheet, but I think I could use NATO icons for other nationalities.

Rob,

Sent you a PM so we can hook up.

The RR icon's are from a package from someone that created (I got them from John Fogger) and I use Telu IV Map Mod (board game look), plus the Darker Super River & Canal Mod from BigDuke66 and a few things from Steve.

I could work with you on the Vietnam Combat Operations coloring (not so much right now on the actual bmp modifications) but I'd need to figure out some good colors to choose from, I have the old Victory Games Vietnam 1965-1975 counters I may be able to use.
