New Panzer Campaign Graphics

RE: New Panzer Campaign Graphics
As they say, opinions are like assholes - everyone has one.

Firstly, as mentioned in the blog post but reiterated again, the Gold graphics will be included so that you can retain those if required. No one is forcing anyone to change from what was done in those releases. And for Peter yes, the 'no hex' versions will be left - as mentioned in the blog post.

Secondly, I am not planning to change the German colours. Every single unit card since the Gold releases has had the 'Nato counter' included and I don't have time to go back and change them all - for every title. There seems to be a number here indicating I am wasting my time upgrading any graphics at all and I should be purely focused on new releases. That point is now taken and I will leave it to clever modders to correct the error of my ways re German colouring.

Thirdly, as I have reiterated more than once in this thread, these were draft graphics. Many of your suggestions to date have now been incorporated. For example, the handling of entrenchments and mines and obstacles is back towards the way it was handled in the Gold Releases. Rivers, streams and canals (again as mentioned in the blog post!) have been reworked and are much more distinctive. Brush has also been changed to differentiate it from woods and 'the hexy' look of woods in particular has been corrected as best I can with six randomly laid out graphics. Railways are also closer to what people have been requesting - similar to Jison's handling.

A little point on Jison. Jison has been a fantastic partner for the whole community and has selflessly provided his mapmod for free to all. He has also officially provided the graphics for a number of JTS titles on a paid basis. There have been a number of discussions where he has quite rightly asked that none of his work be included in a commercial title with out his approval. In a number of cases we were straying too close to that and its one of the reason I don't want to closely emulate his work. I want to be completely respectful to Jison, I believe he is an exemplary graphic designer and every time I look at his work I learn something.

I am still adjusting graphics and will not show them for a little while, as I'd like them closer to a final (draft) version before you all unleash on me again...
