1. Don't worry about the outside links, particularly to SoS, which is sort of a sister site anyway - if you haven't yet, see my write-up of it in the Decade Awards Jury Awards thread. If links to outside threads was an issue that whole thread would be illegal.
2. (referencing the second quote) True. You'll find a lot of folks around here who are multi-talented. More than your usual share of writers and history buffs here too, which raises the general level of conversation considerably.
As to your thread subject, glad to see some new armies being made. Armies are usually overlooked by unit makers, but sorely needed as (I'm led to believe) they apparently have their own special palette format. My only gripe is that, except for the Napoleonic era lines, there are almost no industrial-era army units available - even though, in the course of a normal game, that's when they're all over the place.
I completely agree with you about the armies. It not only adds flavor, and fun to the game, but its much easier to move armies around than attacking in stacks, and moving, I think anyway
It also is good defense from the stack attack!
Screaming eagles!!
Each civ for wwii mods gets an Infantry Army, a tank army, an airborne, an Army Group, marine unit and some special unit, like ss panzer, or for the US the Rangers, Soviet gets a Shock Army, and a king piece, if you want regicide. ( Last Pic)
Theres also buildings that make units, like Africa Corps and other flavor units, with special ability.
Just to get you into the mood to create your masterpiece,
I'll Throw in a building to get you started. I didnt make it, but i picked out the picture, so i guess that means I helped
Its called "Prop..o..hmmm, Propaganda? Its the same word right? Propaganda Ministry.
