RE: New Panzer Campaign Graphics
I did some investigating about counter colors in general, and found that the Europa series of games from GDW and later GRD always had German Army units in gray-green, Luftwaffe in light blue, and SS in black with white symbols. This is true for all titles in the series.
SPI (War in Europe) had the German Army in gray, with SS in black.
The only instances I can find for Tiller style blue-gray German Army counters are Avalon Hill's Squad Leader and Advanced Squad Leader games.
A great source to check these out is the Board game Geek site that has full color scans of counter sheets.
This is mainly for David and WDS. Maybe it is time to change at least the German Army color. SS appear to be close to impossible to change without some type of programming change, and that would be a lot of work for a cosmetic thing.
I'll continue to do it for my personal mods, regardless. Just thought I'd try and shine some light on the Europa theory. For what it's worth my German Army counters are gray-green, SS dark gray, and Luftwaffe pale blue-gray. If KM units are present I make them light gray.
