Hi guys,

www.ccnapoleonics.net/index.php?option=c...d=27:units&Itemid=13

Please write down some details here and after defining content I'll create a page to show you the result, before creating all other pages.

Waiting for your kind feedback.
Thank you.

Hello Alessandro,

Thank you for this site and forum.

I think, may be : number of blocks per unit, battle modifiers, fire if standing or moving ?

In this case, it could be necessary to make a distinction between the different nationalities ?

I'll try to set-up a graphical layout this evening and next I'll ask your opinions about it.
Thank you for the feedback.

Here you can find an updated UNIT TEMPLATE.
If this looks good to you I can create all other units.
Please let me know your opinions about it.
Thank you.

Thanks for the update : it seems on a good way...:)

I just noted that some informations are doubled.. an idea : could it be possible to keep common infos in the bottom text and varying ones in the upper image ?

for example : replace in the image mouvement by fire range moving and supress blocks in the text.

(also, don't forget to change light by line in the "type").

good idea for the flags, I found some portuguese flags on the net :

www.warflag.com/napflags/flaghtml/portugal.htm

www.napoleon-series.org/military/organization/c_portflags.html

hope this can help.

Corrected "line/Light".
If I don't remember wrong "block numbers" are different some times... don't know about movement.
But I can move both to bottom section if you prefer (and specify difference with a small note on bottom).
Said that, after flag and unit symbol we will find:
- unit number (total in game box)
- battle modification
- movement modification
- notes

Is this right?

Yes Alessandro, I think it's better with the moving modifier up, as this one is different for portuguese troops :



This template will need some small modifications depending other unit's class/type : fire range, moral modif or not etc..

I've slightly updated "Unit List" with pascal72 suggestions:
- added Portugal flag
- moved movement hexes on bottom table (common info)
- added color-coded class (Infantry)

I would also like to create a reference with icons (instead of so many texts).
Is there anybody out there that can help me finding some icons about:
- melee combat (maybe Saber icon)
- ranged combat (maybe a Rifle icon)
- standing unit (like the one used in Vassal?)
- moving unit (foot icon?)

I already have icons about:
- dice
- infantry
- cavalry
- artillery

Thank you Pascal,
slightly modified Unit for "Line Infantry".
Added 2 variants:
1) with all infos on each row (divided by nationality)
2) with grouped shared infos (and separated national infos)

LEt me know which one do you prefer.
Thanks
