Eurogeddon: Thunderbolts of War

[Vaximillian]

Everything looks just awesome (except the shield for the Nat.China) and I have only one suggestion. Shouldn't Greek flag look like this?

Very nice flags, I really like your graphics, it sure looks like a new game .

Thank you folks.

Yes, this is what it's supposed to look like. Like a new game

[Terminator]

I have only one suggestion. Shouldn't Greek flag look like this?

You are probably right. It seems the option you showed is what the Greeks used before their Regime of the Colonels.

So, I have changed the Greek flag. Thank you for noticing that

Thank you very much for the maps. Very interesting information.

You're welcome. Some more maps:

Eastern Front (not really necessary though, spanning from late 1942 to early 1943)






North Africa








OOBs for Axis/Allied forces in North Africa (23 October 1942)


Pacific Theater




Japanese Centrifugal Offensive (December 1941 - around April/May 1942

Actually I am already working on the main scenarios as well. Currently it's not 1942 though. 1933 and '37 so far

I can give you some information about those too:

Events of 1933
Events of 1937

Since I'm from Spain, I've searched for articles relating the Spanish Civil War, that, in 1937, could have been won by either side.




A few very interesting pages (some of them are in Spanish though):

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_Civil_War
http://www.fjavier.com/aire1936-39/1939/index.htm (in Spanish)
http://www.zi.ku.dk/personal/drnash/...spain/did.html
http://www.fjavier.com/aire1936-39/jarama/organiza.htm (in Spanish; this one includes a detailed OOB for both sides in mid-1937)
http://www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk...-Civil-War.htm (this page is full of articles relating the Spanish Civil War. In English)

I'll try to keep posting more information as I find it.

Cheers! Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all of you!

Also, it is I or does Nat. China flag look a bit weird?

OK, I've remade the flag and the shield of Nat. China. I guess you will like this option more than the previous one

[Terminator]

Also I've made another option of the German flag/shield. Actually it's not the German state flag. It's based on the flag of the German Defense Ministry that was used from 1933 to 1935. The fact that it was used under the Nazis for whole 3 years (1933, 1934, 1935) makes this thing eligible to represent the Nazi Germany.

Is it better or worse than just the simple German tricolor (w/o the cross) ?

I think that it's better than the simple tricolor.
By the way Merry Christmas!

Btw the japanese flag has its "red sun" centered.
Did you choose it to be like this? Its not really the same.

There were two similar variants of that Japanese Imperial flag. One of them is symmetrical, where the sun is right in the center, and the other one is assymetrical, where the sun is closer to the left side. The first one was used by the Japanese Imperial Army. The second one was used by the Japanese Imperial Navy.

Compare:


Army


Navy



I simply chose the Army option over the Navy one

[Terminator]

I think that it's better than the simple tricolor.

I think so too

[Old Patrician]

Now i can say for sure that yes, the next release of the scenario will include flags of the new design

When can we expect the next release ?

Merry christmas to all modders and mod users.

I knew that but why did you choose the army one over the navy?
Imperial Japan is famously know with the IJN flag.

Ah doesnt really matter Both flag looks good!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!

[Terminator]

I don't know it yet. These holidays are distracting me a lot.

Just because the Army flag appeals to me more than the other one

[Viden]

The best flag for Germany is the nazi flag but instead the evil and devil swastika, the rune Adal (If I remember well) or the Iron Cross or even a blank.

Thank you for your comments, folks.

Anybody else would like to say something about possible options of the German flag ?

[Von Mergen]

I prefer the historical Nazi Germany flag ''with a red background, a white disk, and a black swastika in the middle.'', I know it is forbidden to show swastikas but it was that flag they used during the WWII not the tricolor one.

The tricolor was used by the Nazis too, along with the swastika flag.

Besides that, like I already said, the tricolor with the cross was the flag of the German Defense ministry in 1933-35

[Inner Circle]

This mod looks promising!

Keep up the work!

BTW: it seems that the link to the Eurogeddon-Forum doesn´t work?

[omega20]

I like that German's flag. However, that iron cross seems a bit little... the one in Germany's marine jack and war flag from 1933 to 1935 is sightly bigger:



@Terminator: About the tricolor flag, it should be noted that it was used by the Nazis just from 1933 to 1935. From there, the one with the swastika remained the only official one.

@Von Mergen: Keep in mind that, while you may prefer the historical flag with the swastika rather than the tricolor one, it wouldn't be that nice to add it in the game since not everyone like it.

Cheers!
