The naval background... maybe you can create for the naval portrait an integrated background, i refer that the image cover all the unitbox and the normal unitbox in under the portrait not visible.

But in the art area in my case i prefer see a mod to have black SS counters/blackground and grey for regular army (and with this you can use stock luftwaffe blue or the actual regular army "blue" as you wish).

And another question about art, the german infantry portrait showed in the Cherbourg scen is final or you are going to use other???

Thanks.

PD: i never ask this but in BBs, BCs and CAs that usually had 6inches guns as secondary armament... they have special bonus in firepower when range of target is inside their range??? think that BBs usually had more firepower in secondary battery than a CL main battery.


Xaver,

I didn't setup the values for the naval units, the original team did. That said there are predominantly destroyers or smaller in each scenario and only occasionally capital ships. Naval artillery fires like normal artillery with one shot per turn.

As far as the naval portrait, yes you can do that for the top of the picture, but not from the unit name plate down. That utilises the default unit box.

Finally, as mentioned previously you can mod the counter colours - it's not hard. What is harder is if you want the counter background right. That would require every graphic to be recoloured. Here is some examples I knocked up in five minutes. The units on the left have the counter and unit background done. The units on the right only have the counter surround recoloured - that's a thirty second job. Please note that the actual unit graphics were never intended to be on counters this dark...
