@beelee Here you go... Rock nation... though I am truly not sure Triple A is ready for this.

@beelee This is how I would do the PU markers. But it is a lot of work since I would have to do it for every territory on the entire map.

So the question really comes down to this... am I doing this for the actual map... or just a special "Beelee" private stock black label version?
Because truth be told I am not in for revising the entire map just for a fun private version. This map has so many visual issues I hardly feel motivated to change anything on it without addressing everything... and I really don't want to address everything.

@hepps yea thats cool. Just wanted the PU numbers to look like the way redrum did the unit numbers. Thought the new images would just replace the current ones in the PUs folder. So yea, will shelve this request : ). Getting ready to add "Rock On Heppster" image : )
Thanks again
-
@beelee Well here are the same PU images just with slightly more black outline.

Not sure whether this is what you were looking for.
-
@beelee Here is the the same darkened outline with a cream filled center...

-
@beelee And here is the same darkened numbers without any fill or ring

-
@beelee thanks for your time Hepps. I'll quit bugging on ya : )
-
@beelee he loves this! Its why he is a Sexcellent map maker!
-
@beelee No bug. Just let me know if one of those works or whether you were looking for something else. I have no issue with doing easy changes. Just the first style I was going for was far more in depth and only worth it if we were actually changing the official map.
-
@hepps right on. I'm gonna try th e black outline first. Should totally save the other ones. The more the merrier imo : ) Heh Heh Digging "Rock On Heppster" Image. brought tears to my eyes : )

@hepps awesome hepps ! Here's "Rock On Guy " :
Have tears in my eyes

Now what you need are Rocker units to invade the yuppy fortified positions.

-
@hepps i almost spotted ! LOFL
-
@beelee Guess you will need the lead vocalist... (hvy strat bomber) the guitarist (fighter) the drummer (Tank) the bassist (artillery) and the the female groupie (Factory).

-
@hepps If I understand it correctly, this would be a way to show original ownership, that is a feature lacking in TripleA. However, if so, showing original ownership with the roundel and current ownership with the colour would be the opposite of what a known boardgame does (in that, of course, the colours on the board don't change, and you put a roundel to tell current ownership).
-
@cernel Would be a variation based on what is easily achievable with the way the engine works.
It is also possible to make the territories have no colouration and use a roundel as a permanent unit in every territory that changes on capture (exactly what TWW does with the flags) but history has shown us that people get very confused on Triple A when territories donèt change colour.
