I shared CWO Marc’s wish for a better “around the clock bombing” image, so I searched today and eventualy found this one… PERFECT.

Woo-hoo, very nice find! A Lancaster if I’m not mistaken – and one that’s flying in daylight, which is something I’ve not seen often because the RAF’s bombers typically flew at night. Good choice. And unlike my Liberator picture, it’s not in flames, so that makes the advantage a more attractive pick. :-)
I disagree, I think it depicts late dusk based on the purple hue sky, and the fires burning below. I agree that it’s a great find 8-)
Still looking for a better “Commonwealth Aid” image.

Here are two possibilities, with a third to be posted right afterwards.
This one is anachronistic in origin, but not obviously so in terms of its appearance.
these are great options, the first being the front runner, the second feels very American but the art work might win me over, the third has no WW2 vibe to it.
Here’s a suggestion for Kamizaze Honor and one for Modernized Shipyards.
The text of your shipyard card, by the way, says “Subsmarines”.
Also, here’s a link to some nice aircraft paintings:

If you end up liking both, you could use the second one for War Time Production.
Yep perfect!!!
I hope this is the start of something good. I would begin to create AA50 cards and Milton Bradley ( random event deck)
Two Russian Winter suggestions.
Tankograd and Airborne Assault.
I’m absolutly in love with the other images as is, the only ones I’m looking to improve on are…
Commonwealth Aid
Blitzkreig Tactics
Trans-Siberian Railway
here are a couple possibilities for commonwealth aid going in the direction of merchant shipping escorts from Canada…
Vive la France.

I prefer the first one. The one showing an escort ship ramming a U-boat doesn’t really convey the concept of cheaper industrial production.

Agreed, it’s just that it’s so dark and gray… I think I’m gonna use one of the pics you found, maybe the tanks.

Gotta say, I’m having lots of fun with this.
The 1st image is for the “War Time Production” advantage, and the 2nd image is for the “Commonwealth Aid” advantage (cards have been updated on page #1).
FOUND IT!!!… I’M SOOO HAPPY!
Blitzkrieg Tactics advantage card has been updated on page 1 of this thread, I even put it through the filter to sharpen the image a little and it looks perfect.
YG,
Thanks for cluing me in on how you plan to use the Airborne Assault, War Time Production, Long Range Aircraft and Modernized Shipyards cards. Placing each card out with the country roundels on them is a really great idea.
Also, I didn’t take into account cards for the Strategic Objectives. Really great that you managed to make it exactly 54 to make use of a full Artcow deck.
The pictures you are using are looking great. I can’t wait until you get these finished so I can get a deck for myself.

Nice… definitely the right one there.
