                Very nice pictures … but before you make more of them, you should listen to Cernels advice about not cropping away to much of the transparent area around the unit pics. I can see that the German major, colonel and general all have a clean cut at the bottom. I can see that the colonel is 48 px in height, but you can let the pics be 50, 52 or 54 px in height with no problem.

                Those officers are a nice idea. I don’t know what your plan is with them, but I can already imagine some sort of “command” point that can be used to purchase officers. ☺

                  @Frostion Yup... again... just ripping out the concepts as they come to me...

                  I will go back and refine the edging as I the ideas out of my head and onto "paper" and then go back and finish the details.

                    There is another resource... but it is designed to be far more generalized. Intended to be used in multiple facets of national pursuits.

                      This project looks good. I see that you finally got your ships hulls to begin on land!

                        @CrazyG Not yet... but I have been told it is possible. Just never got the specifics on how to achieve it. But if it is possible then I am sure I will figure it out at some point.

                          Unless I'm missing something recently, I'm 99% sure this is not possible in a clear way. The person who affirmed this must have found some work-around. Better you get him to tell you his secret; might be some crazy stuff you would never guess. 😛

                          What I can think of, is making the hull into an air unit with movement 1 and make it possible to move only to the sea, with territory effects or (land to land) canals.

                            I have gotten a hull built on land to work with an isKamikaze 1 movement air unit that is consumed after it is moved into the sea zone in non combat. This does require moving the check for non-landed air units to after placement in the delegates, which shouldn't disrupt the game to my knowledge. However, I think @CrazyG has a cleaner solution than that. If anyone wants the XML that I used to work that, pm me.

                              @theredbaron Yes he was in fact the one who indicated he had devised a clean system for achieving this.

                                    I'll go ahead and share my secret.

                                    You need the unit to be able to move onto both land and sea, so you make it an airunit. You purchase it and place it on land like any other air unit.

                                    Then you give it carrierCost=0, which lets it land in empty sea zones as if there was a carrier there. So on the next you move your hull into the sea zone and it should land just fine (isKamikaze could work as well but this seems cleaner). Then you buy the battleship, and it should consume the hull just like it would consume a sea unit version.

                                    In version 1.8 I had an XML with this working, life got in the way before I could share it though.

                                      @CrazyG You the man! That would have taken me an eternity to figure out if I even ever managed to do it at all.

                                          well thanks, I'm glad to help. Its a cool trick for other stuff too

                                          What I'm dying to know is have you figured out trains?

                                            @Hepps I'll second this one. Sutur2 on in his new WWI map has used them as simple land transports, and I don't mind that entirely, but a system with infrastructure as you had proposed would be ideal to represent that portion of the war, how the Allies often bombed infrastructure in areas as a prelude to an attack to prevent reinforcement.

                                            @CrazyG You had a system with triggers to this affect in a former thread, no? I think it may have had something to do with triggering terrain effects, if I remember correctly.
