Am I doing something wrong, or is this how it is?
Finally, what is different about the AoTR mod, if using it with RV? Just a different take on the map graphics?
Also, my objective icon graphics did not change? Is this only if I use the mod for Eagles Strike? I have that on order so I should be getting it soon! Can't wait.
And, the unit cards graphics/backgrounds did not change? Is this also just an Eagles Strike only upgrade?
Sorry for all the questions. I'm just trying to figure out how these mods work. Many thanks for all the help!
No problem. The icon graphics for the counters IronX did are for Eagle's Strike. They'd look a little weird in RV considering that the Russian squads would probably end up with US troops in them. It's why I recommended removing the Units files from the upgrade.
The changes I suggested would be for the terrain and would also place the new trench/mine/barriers...etc things in there.
As for the color, I haven't seen that drastic of a difference, but I haven't look at it all that much. I'll do so at lunch.

Sorry forgot to say they work very very very well with IronX's graphics.
I actually ALTERED these for the Panzer/Modern campaign games and thought I'd try resizing them for Squad Battles.
AGAIN TO CLARIFY THIS IS NOT MY ORIGINAL WORK.
Please if you recognize these hexes please tell me where they come from.
And to the moderator if I've broken any rules sorry please remove posts.
No rules broken here. You stated it was an alteration.
Anyone who puts stuff into the public domain has to expect, and may even encourage, others to improve upon their work.
Looks great.
