What about someone to create a Battle of France scenario with these superb units?

I suppose only the first french icon is really required for a WW2 scenario."Military training has three purposes: 1)To save ourselves from becoming subjects to others, 2)to win for our own city a possition of leadership, exercised for the benefit of others and 3)to exercise the rule of a master over those who deserve to be treated as slaves."-Aristotle, The Politics, Book VII

Holy ****!
Darthveda has just made the same joke!"Military training has three purposes: 1)To save ourselves from becoming subjects to others, 2)to win for our own city a possition of leadership, exercised for the benefit of others and 3)to exercise the rule of a master over those who deserve to be treated as slaves."-Aristotle, The Politics, Book VII

LOL @ Darth, Palaiologos.
The first unit was what first came to my mind when I started this set. The others emerged from concomitant aesthetic considerations.
It was Captain Nemo who first proposed the creation of a Battle of France scenario, and I took up the idea myself after he retired from Civilization. Given the existence of all the necessary German units, the graphics task is virtually completed.
Alas, like most scenario makers, I find that my procrastination is a chronic malady, and with the end of my summer vacation and my raging teenage hormones, I can offer no prospects for a WW2 scenario in the near future; I would, however, be blissfully delighted if someone gave this task the effort it deserves.Comment

Btw: Javier Arriaga aka jasev created a good Battle of France scenario called Drole de Guerre. You can find it in the Spanish Civilization SiteOriginally posted by atlas

Great job, Atlas, I always wanted to add any units to my scenario. BTW, are you sure the colour is right? I thought french uniforms were blue, but I never could confirm it.The behind-the-scenes unit designer is back with his Battle of France collection.
@Darthveda: I think I'll use the fourth one (and the tanks)

Thanks guys, I like being appreciated.Great job, Atlas, I always wanted to add any units to my scenario. BTW, are you sure the colour is right? I thought french uniforms were blue, but I never could confirm it.
Jasev, I think you're referring to French WWI uniforms. According to my colorful history books, at the start of WWI, the poilu was outfitted in a dark-blue uniform with red trousers; this was later replaced by an entirely light-blue outfit. By 1939, French forces wore a uniform of similar design but olive in color. The design of my units comes from the illustrations in my book.Comment

Thank you, I thought that they preserved the old light-blue uniform. It was a headache to research it because I couldn't find a colour photograph.this was later replaced by an entirely light-blue outfit. By 1939, French forces wore a uniform of similar design but olive in color

Colour Tint Request
Is anyone willing to recolour the light tank on the left (made by Jim Panse I think) to the colour scheme used by the Sherman on the right? (by Nemo & Fairline) It's the perfect light tank for my Appeasement and Agression Scenario.Attached Files'Arguing with anonymous strangers on the internet is a sucker's game because they almost always turn out to be - or to be indistinguishable from - self-righteous sixteen year olds possessing infinite amounts of free time.'

Here you go Case. Do you have PSP? If so, it's just a case of 'edit palette' and copying the green colours into the sand/brown slots.Attached FilesComment

Thanks a lot for that Fairline
No, I don't have PSP - when I recolour units, I do it by hand with MS Paint and/or the FW editor. Needless to say, this is rather time consuming.'Arguing with anonymous strangers on the internet is a sucker's game because they almost always turn out to be - or to be indistinguishable from - self-righteous sixteen year olds possessing infinite amounts of free time.'

Re: Colour Tint Request
This Type 92 has already been recoloured from the original dark green. Where did my initials go? Only the tracks and part of the turret are from Nemo. Jim added the Japanese insignia and the tan, for his pacific scenario.Originally posted by Case

Hell! i can not even create gifs!

I think that's why I can never open your gifs/bmps that you've renamed You need to use a graphic program to save them in different formats.
Tanelorn has a point here - Jim Panse should have left Tanelorn's sig on the graphic.Comment
