ps: since we jumping into variable-sweep wings era here, is it too much trouble to make sweep wing icons for fighters and straight configuration for ground attack variants? Tomcats and Floggers can sure benefit from this. So will do Su-24 (recon configuration from 1.3 for example) and Aardvarks if we'll ever see 'em =)

upd: something like this (sorry, I really suck with graphics)

Also I researched those particular planes and I concluded that most of the time they use their extended wings options. So I decided to keep them that way.
By the way, nice editing there!, even more considering you are using a non-transparent icon
But I least I can fulfill your desire about the Aardvarks

Unfortunately is coming slowly. I am making slow progress these weeks.
But do not worry, it will come eventually. A lot of new stuff

Best regards,

Some updates of the upcoming Persian Gulf '91 scenario.
- Size: 108x94
- Sides: Iraq / Coalition (USA, UK, France, Saudi Arabia)
- Turns: 60 (can be changed according to tests)
- Starting from 30/01/1991, beginning of Desert Storm operation
- Multiplayer and Singleplayer
The objectives are pretty basics, from the point of view of the Coalition player is a race against time, for the Iraqi player is a matter of survival:
- Coalition: Take all objectives AND take all the oilfields BEFORE turn 30
- Iraq: Hold Baghad (which is OPTIONAL for the Coalition side) and 7 additional objectives OR hold all the oilfields by turn 30 (prestigious victory)
The scenario shall include small bonus rewards, i.e.: the Coalition player will receive a prestige boost if he/she destroy the refinery located in Baghad (pretty far and dangerous airstrike).
Regarding the units, I tried to include all the iconic equipment involved in that operation; but keep in mind some didn't make it. It took me a LOT of time and effort to add the new material, so I expect you guys understand if some beloved unit is missing . But anyway, rest assured you will find more than enough
Now some pics.

The Iraqis are taking position at the outskirts of Kuwait, but the Coalition airforce is already spotting their movements:


Refinery in Baghad. Its destruction will grant prestige for the Coalition player and a one-time penalty for the Iraqi one:


Ohh, can you see them?:


The R-17 Elbrus (or Scud) artillery unit has a huge range and its the elite of the Iraqi defenses:

Hi 1ang!. I already included the F-117, take a look at the first pics of the scenario (a few pages ago).
Best regards,

European cities somehow look strange to the eye in this Middle East setting in my opinion. So something like this maybe instead:
