Minor Axis Countersheet

[vince hughes]

To Peter (again),

Have you played with (rather than finish developing) any PG counters with side-on silhouettes of AFV's ?

Probably not I guess. However, I prefer silhouette pictures of tanks on counters. I wouldn't mind the top-down pics on PG counters, but unlike ASL, they don't put them to scale with each other. This means the PzI on the counter picture looks as big if not bigger than the King Tiger.

Any chance you can produce one to picture here just for the fun of it ?

Thanks for the vote of encouragement Vince. I've made suggestions, and offered reworked and new counters to AP before. The reception was rather frost, I was just ignored. So post stuff here and on BGG.

To your second question, yes I have. I presume you want something like PB/PL counters, perhaps with a little more detail & color. I made my Moved/Fired counters like that. Silhouette graphics are easier to get. Mostly I pulled them out of SP:WaW. I could make a couple for you. What did you have in mind?

I'd definitely like too see this project done. The miniatures game Flames of War range has done a much better job of covering the Axis eastern minors than APL has.

You should submit a design.

These are counters I've made:

Hungarians I have	Hungarians Hungarians Intended	Romanians I have	Romanians Intended
HU AFV Pz38	HU AC Csaba	RO AA 13p2mm	RO TD TACAM T-60
HU AFV PzIVh	HU AFV Toldi	RO AA 37mm	RO TD TACAM R-2
HU AFV StugIIIg	HU AFV Toldi II	RO AFV FT-17-37
HU AFV Tiger I	HU AFV Toldi IIA	RO AFV FT-17mg
HU AFV Turan	HU TD Nimrod	RO AFV TA
HU AFV Turan II	HU AFV Zrinyi	RO ART 100mm
HU TD HetzerI	HU AFV PzIVe	RO ART 105mm
	Mountain Troops	RO ART 75mm
	HU CAV	RO AT 37mm
	HU MTC	RO HMG Bdr
	HU Artillery, AT & AA guns	RO IG 37mm
		RO INF Bdr

I'm sure my notation code isn't too hard to decipher.

All this stuff is awesome. Minor countries rock!

Peter,

Nothing in mind, I was just wondering what a proper combat counter or two would look like using side on pics rather than top-down. I don't know if you'd have to move the counter values for such a case ?

[plloyd1010]

I'll see if I can knock out a couple over lunch. It shouldn't be too hard as there is a lot of space in the middle of the counters.
