Sorry, that was some awkward wording on my part-- I wish I had those skills myself! What I meant to say was that I had restored the stock SCW portraits for the unit cards and to me they look much better and have a more consistent style than the ones from PW (I would still use the PW portraits, ugly and all. IMO the card art should be evocative and reflect the period; I find the top down version unacceptable for this purpose).

That said, I *have* put some work on the SCW topdown graphics for the counters to ensure that:
- Flags are correctly assigned to factions (they are inverted in game, i.e. Republicans have Nationalist flags and vice versa, already addressed by Warhorse's interim patch)
- Leaders are represented by one guy (this has required minimal .oob modifications, may require more work for other titles)
- The uniform colors for each type of troop are consistent with the portrait view.

I am with you Xeres, yes, that sounds like what I have done as well. It works for me.
