Default Re: How to Edit Icons

Because infantry use a special set of icons with 1-13 men, the cavalry variant has horses, gun crews have different amounts of crew etc.

None of those have armour (they are soft targets) - only vehicles have that. And vehicles don't have visible crew reductions on damage/different crew sizes. Vehicles get targeted by ATGM, and can be shot with AP ammo.

That is all hard-coded in the game.

You are simply trying the impossible there.

You could try SP3 - brigade command - as it had vehicle platoons with 1-5 elements (but your "infantry" could not load onto APC - only barges - and would be shot at by ATGM and HEAT as if tin jeeps). Or find a "moddable" mech type game.
