I downloaded the "Squad Leader" look for RV... and like it a lot! Big Grin

2D View

* Squad silhouettes show a squad of men - not a single person. (I would get confused identifying officers from squads in original 2D)
* See at a glance if your units are prone. Prone silhouette on counter.
* Mines, obstacles, barbed wire, improved positions, etc labeled.
* Wrecks are blackened hulls (Impossible to confuse with a "live" AFV)
* 2D terrain "pops" more. A lot on matte color contrast in different terrain like brush versus trees.
* Axis counters have battle grey back ground - much easier on the eyes!
* SS units have appropriate insignia
* Objective hexes clearly identified with controlling side's country flag

I'm sure there are more improvements!

Good stuff! Thumbs Up

Thanks.

I downloaded jmass's AotR mod yesterday. I noticed two other links on the pages that don't seem to work - these ones:

2D Symbols (for all my mods)
2D Terrain (for AotR, ES, RV, SCW, WW)

Anyone know if these contain different items than his main link for AotR?

Thanks again to all,

Gerry

J Mass added these files to the mods at the top of the first page.
These were updates early on and he incorporated them into his mods.

Is the Jmass ASL mod for SB still available ?

I've seen some screenshots and it looks so great !


RE: Questions about AotR and RV - LFDLM - 06-17-2019

Jmass answered me me very kindly and quickly on Netwargamingitalia. Dead links are updated ! Now my AR looks like ASL, so I'm happy :)
