I like your work, but I would replace some. In fact, the pics taken at a museum are somewhat uncool.

It's a problem for us to get contemporary colour photos of all vehicles and unit types, therefore we sometimes have to make compromises. Anyone are of course free to use only the pictures they like in their games.

Generalfeldmarschall's picture of the three Germans, one of them shooting a flamethrower, would be good for Mar, since color pictures of Germans in boats or on beaches may be hard to find.

There are some very weird propaganda posters in that pack. The alledgedly Ukranian one is in Spanish, for instance. The Serbia and Ireland ones are clearly WW1 posters. Russia's has a big red star (RUS is the fascist or democratic version, SOV is the communist one!) Israel's fake poster is really, really creepy, which is good, but why is it in English? Iceland's poster is obviously a US-made one; since that country is usually released by Germany, perhaps a more neutral poster would be better. FRA3 talks about General de Gaulle, which makes little sense 1936-1940. FRA2 is a Commonwealth WW1 poster talking about the Dardanelles in English.

I did look at the SOV stuff for a moment; msotly good, but the Improved and Advanced Heavy Tank brigades appear to be pictures of T-34s, instead of IS-1 and IS-2.

Thankyou for your suggestions, that's why the pack is called v1.0, I will try to fix the weird stuff in the next version. Actually, most countiries in the Second world war didn't produce any propaganda posters at all. Hence a poster which can approximately describes the contury's background is fine. (I just noticed that the irish poster i found is the same as the default one. This means the Paradox uses WW1 posters as well).

I thought that the three germans with flamethrower might make a better HD icon than the current one. The current one... i guess... is a bridge?!?

That's because there is some differences between the numbering between the Stony Road Mod and Vanilla Hoi2... We will try to make up for these things over time...

Oooh... and btw... the German Tech Team pictures will soon be finnished... here is a little teaser


An updated version of the german leader pack will also be made available for download soon...

Nice installation pictures. The rocket test site one is unintentionally hilarious - that's the National Air and Space museum in Washington DC, containing a V1, a V2 in lousy condition, a replica of Skylab in the background, and a model of the Space Shuttle clearly visible on the right. Aren't there any color pictures of WW2-era rocket factories or launch sites?

Went to see it when I was in DC in the summer; the V2 looks like they beat on it with hammers every morning. The V2 in the Imperial War Museum in London is in much better condition and has some plating removed so you can see inside on one side.
