Also, 4 out of your 10 marines are actually F4F Wildcat fighters. The Zeros and Wildcats have to do with a rule about carrier fighters with a reduced price tag and a reduced move (from 4 to 3, I seem to remember).

@throgmorton Fantastic! I just made the background images with AI, which is why some of the faces are a bit wonky. I could have a go at making some new ones.
What do we need? France and Anzac?

That’s part of why I wasn’t too worried about covering up the background images, because there were some pretty obvious imperfections in them which were covered up by the boxes, but the overall composition of the image still looked good. But I might be able to make some better ones
-
@Simnos yeah that would be great. So it basically the minor powers China, France, ANZAC. Although since your sheets had US & ANZAC together the background for that one seems to have both flags. So I could use it for either I guess.

@throgmorton try these: https://www.mediafire.com/folder/sm36vn9xsy5dp/Setup_Sheets_new_images
I’ve done the minor factions. I’ve also redone the british one, partly cause in the image there are British and Chinese forces combined, and also because the guys face in the foreground was annoying me.
I’ve labelled the ones I think are the best for each faction, but there are also some backups in there in case you like them better. Happy to revisit.
-
@Simnos @throgmorton these are looking incredible, guys, can’t wait to see the finals
-
@Simnos Thanks I downloaded them.
Lol, I actually liked the original British one you had with the close up of the spitfire flying low (didn’t really notice the guys face though). But once you mentioned AI, I took a closer look at the pictures and did notice some weird artifacts, especially some of the small planes in the sky but those were easy enough to take out.
Anyways I have updated them with the new art, and will definitely repost them so you guys can use them as you like.
I’m still trying to see if there is a better way to present the Combat Forces (it’s the only hard box I have left).
-
@vodot Thanks its definitely a process…
I was actually looking back at some of my first drafts originally for instance here was Japan (don’t have file anymore but scanned from a printout).
I had lots of boxes to contain the information, and realized things like margins on the outside edge were to small and the spaces for the roundels to sit on the sheet were too small, some of the font sizes were definitely on the small size.
So I corrected and it looked more like this (Germany scanned from printout)
But finally I switch from portrait to landscape and dropped almost all the boxes to bring out the background art and not have it contained to that small political situation box.
-
I think its a little cleaner now without the box, also allowed me to use slightly larger fonts, and honestly might be more efficient at setup if its grouped by unit type as opposed to territory (or at least that’s what I tell myself).
-
@throgmorton looks great. I think it might well be quicker to set up that way. Definitely more noob friendly with the pictures.
-
Can use this one if you like. I’ve managed to kinda remake it without the weird faces.
