Hello AKRebel.
If I remove the two icons at the bottom right (SS. Panzer-Division (Version 1) and SS. Panzer-Division (Version 2), I have a total of 43 SS unit icons. Besides, in your list, if I include the SS-Panzer-Lehr-Division, that makes 39 Divisions. I checked on Wikipedia and the total is 39 SS divisions. Icons 42 and 43 are identical (SS Charlemagne Division), icons 26 and 27 may be identical in one detail.
Otherwise, it's excellent work. But how to include them in the game?
Good continuation.
Greetings. Bruno

[AKRebel]

But how to include them in the game?

Hello Bruno, the troop codes are optional for the units. The insert is unfortunately not so easy. To explain, I once created a graphic.

• green = the maximum size of a unit = 148 x 148 px

• black = the position of the unit in the hex field = 131 x 113 px

• yellow = flag, strength indicator, hero or medal (left to right) = 23 x 18 px / 27 x 22 px / 18 x 18 px

• red (unit details) = the size of the inner area of the pzsystem_uiicon ... = 145 x 68 px

• blue (purchase details) = the size of the inner area of the purchase_elem ... icon = 146 x 116 px

As you can see, there is not much room here for an additional graphic element. Which position is the right one, unfortunately, I can not say and everyone has to decide for themselves. The idea just serves as an inspiration to try something new.

Thanks. If I understand what you say, it's a very hard work to put the troop codes in the game. To make it simple (and because I'm lazy), I'll pass the idea on to Soldberg for his mod
I found all the badges of the SS Divisions. They are in PNG format. I will do the same for the Wehrmacht Divisions, but they are many!

Hi, here a possible use of the signs with Infantry units.

This is a example to use the signs for every unit. The only problem is that the unitsigns are a bit small.

To use this you need a few other graphics to resize the unit strengthplate and replace the low fuel and low ammo signs in an oither position. This example gives a good all over picture in the game. Experiments with bigger unit signs or the signs in other places looked good for the unit but with a lot of units land/air together it always get messy.

In this example the sign is a little bigger and is placed on a position with no conflicts with other signs like low fuel and low ammo

Here you see a example for small signs for a unit. A small strength plate, hero signs, can move/attack signs and replaced low fuel/ammo signs. This system leaves max space for unit signs. In the .rar file are the files you can place in Panzer Corps so you will have the situation as in this example.

This gives space for things like this with bigger unit signs. Remember bigger unit signs look messy when more units (land/air) are close together

Hello phcas, thank you for the very good explanation based on the examples. It is indeed not easy, from the point of view optics and the whole then even clear to look, here to find the right position for all units. I think the riddle solution is in the middle of it, meaning it needs an individual solution per unit type. That's just my opinion. Thank you again for your helpful contribution.

Oké AKRebel. Thanks for your work and keep on going. You make nice graphics. I will use them in combination with my work if you don't mind Thanks.

Hello Phcas, you are welcome to use my created units for your further work. Thank you for your feedback

New icon für Hero and medals

[phcas]

To avoid problems with the purchase screen, the orange bounderies will be the save max position of a unit sign.

I liked very much the replacement icon for the Medals awards! I just included the file in my PzCorps game instalation. Thanks for sharing!
