Streamlined Main Menu Skin - Fog of War

Description
This mod is a version of my original Streamlined Main Menu Skin Mod, but with official Age of Empires II HD artwork - 'Fog of War' - from the Age of Empires II HD Trading Card series, as requested by DmiZ and [FOR] Reason.

This skin simplifies the game's initial menu screen into a neat series of options, with an official Age of Empires II HD Background.

Icons underneath the main menu display the installed DLC - for the base game, the AoK (red) and AoC (blue) helmets are displayed, with the AoAF (green) and AoAK (yellow) helmets displayed as well, if those DLCs are active.

This mod also changes one or two of the in-lobby icons ('Mirror' and 'Spectator') for a neater look.

The background can be easily changed, so let me know if there's a version of this mod with different AoE2-related artwork you would like.

Prefer the default menu?

Here's a mod that fixes some issues with the default main menu and tidies things up: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=873809255

Aruberikku - Apologies for the slow reply. Please feel free! If you could provide a link to this mod that'd be great.

Would I be allowed to upload a main menu mod based on this (just another background)? I'd give you credits for the layout in the description.

I published my own modified version to the Workshop. I hope you don't mind! I gave you credit and put a link back to this one in my description:

why don't you people learn how to do this shit yourself, in fairness at least this dude asked for requests but seriously putting in one image isn't that hard take a 2 hour tutorial

Thank you for this, it's beautiful! However, I didn't really like how much of the background that was covered by the buttons, so I moved them all down to the bottom left corner myself. I modified some of the buttons as well, for consistency. Also tried to align the text on the buttons a little better. Here's my result! :)
