      @ebbe & @JOSEPH-PRINCE I was looking at the winter units and the small snowflake seems quite "muddy" as an image... so I made a new one for you guys...

          @JOSEPH-PRINCE: hej man, yes really nice you make all those units on own initiave... I used the Light armour fot the free french.... besides I also receive units from other people and make my own, so I have to choose & cannot involve all the units you supply ... but I do really appreciate..... But for now my focus will be more on fixing the intro screen issues, adding texture to land territories, adding Hepps roundels to all exisiting units and fix a very good suggestion from Hepps to change country labels appearance, this all will take a little time...
          after, I hope half feb I will put the Map on Github to get a more diverse feedback... and will start a SHOGUN-SENGUKO project kick off..... thanks for the bug reporting: I never saw it before : when did it happen and did it crash or freeze the game?

            I hope it will be a FFA or anyways a more-than-two-sides game. I think TripleA has too few of those, and I dislike most of them.

              @Cernel Definately FFA!! Shogun sengoku era is inspiring setting ... i like Rolf Larsons Feudal Japan maps mechanics from 2017 (i try to contact him) and think there might be more possible....i did lot of work making a boardgame version that i did lot of research work on: like common routes/roads, mountain ranges and mountain passages, volcanoe positions, more and less developed areas and Clans connections and positioning. and Will add a bonus system of Goods to achieve monopoly on , and still haven't ruled out a fog of war system... Anyway kickoff around half feb. on its own thread.... support is welcome

                These four changes represent the flags of the countries prior to occupation by Axis powers or their actual national flag as of 1941.

                  I personally like the rising sun flag... but since you have used the national flag for every other country (excluding of course the much maligned swastika)... I thought you might want these just in case you want to stay consistent.

                      As much as I think that the State flags are the best, I would rather use the armed forces emblems because of the annoyance of being otherwise obliged to make up a silly German flag in order not to show the swastika. On the upside, emblems usually fit better on roundels.

                      Anyway, the rising sun flag is neither a State flag nor a military emblem, which are both about the same for Japan but for the emblem having a relatively much bigger red circle.

                        @Cernel Yes... I agree, it is confusing for me the first day since I started playing Axis Allies boardgame as a kid.... somehow I notice , besides being consistent or historically as coorect as possible, one gets allways fast used to it... whatever option is choosen, and about correctness: yes.. acually the Russians player should be called Soviet... and so .. the reason I stick to the German red -balck and Japanese Sun is mostly I think a issue of nostalgia A& A gaming... the reason for the post >1967 Canadian flag is simply because I am stubborn and I cannot swap this beautiful flag to the apprropriate one... 😉
