BJ asked us to post this for him. Thanks BJ!

Commander - Europe at War : BJ NATO Unit Icons mod - http://www.slitherine.com/files/ceaw/ce ... _icons.zip

These files change the appearance of the main ground forces' unit icons to more closely resemble standard NATO symbols, in line with the appearance of more traditional wargames. The colour palet of the original icons has been retained to have minimal impact on the already superb graphics in the game. Naval, air and garrison unit icons have not been changed, which makes it easier to pick out the main fighting units. Personal preferences may alter, but the existing game symbols for ship and aircraft units seem to be simple and effective, therefore, they are unchanged. Only the large scale submarine icon has been altered to a more representative symbol, whilst the smaller scale submarine icons are unchanged, as at these sizes any changes could be confused with the destroyer symbol.

The unzipped files should be copied into the - CEAW / image / unit - folder, overwriting the original files. Backup the original 'unit' folder in case you want to return to the original icons.

Make no changes to your files unless you are confident in what is required and you have backed up your original folder.
