I guess this is primarily for Jason>>>>. I realize that the icons are based on scale with smaller vehicles having smaller Icons. However some like the L3 and L3/35 Italian icons are so small it is difficult to sometimes tell which way they are facing. I realize that bases on, improves this but is there any chance they could be made a little bigger in a future update, if for no other reason than for esthetic purposes. Just a thought
Whilst I have had no difficulty with these elements in scenario design, you're probably right . The L3 tankette is(metres) 3.2x1.4x1.3 whereas the equivalent Brit Universal Carrier measures 3.6x1.9x1.6. Whilst the carrier is bigger, I agree that the L3 icon appears to be smaller than it should be. On the other hand, they are very small vehicles and the present icon tends to emphasis this.
Also, this sort of one-off change can have an unwanted snowball effect.

I am sure the game developers have larger matters to consider.

No problem. Just something I noticed when playing w/the italians, I forgot to turn bases on a couple of turns, and I couldn't see them in the trees, and forgot about them. Clearly there are more important things..

I have a hard time finding those small tanks, makes then even more diffacult to eliminate, but they blow up quick.
