Thanks for posting. Looking forward to the new high res stuff. Wonder how long we'll have to wait.

We are working through them alphabetically.

Beta patches for Bulge '44 and Budapest '45 have been released to some testers.

There is a fair bit of work for each one as we have to update the graphical symbols for various units.

Here are some examples (right click for full size)

Don't sweat it with the pretty pictures, we all use NATO counters!

Thanks! Can we get Bulge 44 before christmas?

No, do sweat it, I love those pretty pictures!

Seriously, even when I dislike the NATO counters I've found myself switching to them just because it's easier for me to see the organization colors. It would be a no brainer if could see the unit stats on the counter, much like in the 3d view. Given that I haven't seen anything like that around I'm guessing it's not a trivial thing to mod.

This is awesome work, thank you!

The streamer has also just posted a first look at Smolensk '41 Gold in the new graphical format; https://youtu.be/iMHSqsPc6WE

Everything going well you should have a number of these updates hopefully this week to celebrate the 76th anniversary of the Battle of the Bulge.

One cool thing that I have added into the upcoming Smolensk build/patch is a player upgraded map with all the labels based on period Wehrmacht maps. This is obviously in German so a bit different to the current Russian naming. The modder (PhilippeÂ) also added a lot of additional names that were not on the original map. You will be able to (manually) swap the map if you so desire. 

This is a widescreen shot at the middle zoom level of the German map (right click for full size)





And the same area on the original map.
