Nato Symbols or Board Game Counters

[Sean2111]

Is there a mod I can download that offers either of these as an alternative for Unit Icons?

I like the 2d Sprites -they are very detailed and beautiful ,but would like an option ,especially for infantry to use Board Game type Counters as well.

I found 2 threads that discuss this issue ,
but looking through them I do not seem to see a download,unless I am just unobservant.

I like the Board Game Counters shown at the bottom of the 1st thread ,I assume this is a Board Game Counter representation just for illustrative purposes.

And the WIP picture at the start of the 2nd thread looks really promising .It would be cool to mix and match those Counters with the Games existing 2D Sprites ,as shown by his screenshot.

I tried a quick cut/paste of a unit picture I had made earlier for another project and swapped part of the image in Wehrmacht_Inf_43.png.
It did work ,looked a bit off in game but I may be able to do better,
screenie,

v1 not good

v3 I have made a unit base that I could base a picture on now

v4 I placed the original german infantry on my counter base,
Voila ,
this is quite good I think,

Still interested if someone has made similar that I could use.

I have made a thread on Slitherine Forum where I present a basic Mod I have created for Infantry Board Game Counters .

See

I have also made an Extended Range Mod ,
bit of a grandiose term ,
I have changed unit ranges to be much greater than normal to emulate more of a Board Game like Panzer Leader for example.
Sacrilegious to Purists I would think ,but I am having a bit of fun with it.

Thought I would draw attention to a mod made by someone else that is a bit of fun.

Edit : I see you responded to the mod author.

I found I am getting the Board Game vibe I wanted playing HOS ,Hex of Steel.
It is very similar to Panzer Corps.
