Yeah....funny

This is why
Entering 122 will give you the flag of Bolivia
Entering 123 will give you the flag of Paraguay

That is so "ambitious" individuals can build Chaco War scenarios using other nations to create the needed units and use those flags to make it all nice and tidy

This is the list of ID tags that owners of the Extended game version can change for generated battles if they so desire but the feature was mainly added to allow experienced scenario designers the ability to show Non Game nation ID tags and Victory hexes in scenarios which allows scenario designers the ability to change either all the troops in a scenario to a non OOB nation

The trick is finding an ambitious individual so if you know one or want to become one all the tools are there to build a Chaco War scenario ( one already exists----scenario 0682 - Raiders of the Chaco 1/33 ) and/or create Bolivian & Paraguayan OOBs using generic Green and Red OOB's but both of those would be about as interesting and useful to the vast majority of players as the Thailand OOB which was created by an ambitious individual then promptly ignored by 99+% of players though I am sure somebody at some point has actually played as Thailand ( it does have a good looking airforce with it's own unique Icons)

We are currently testing the installer and we tentatively expect the update will be available in early May

I created the one and only scenario around this as DRG pointed out, Raiders of the Chaco.

Well the ground equipment is all there...
Only missing are appropriate airplane icons...

BTW the way I did play a short 10 battle campaign versus Thailand (as France) &
I was attacked by those good looking aiplanes...

Maybe if you created in a future update some appropriate airplane icons and added them as units in the Green & Blue OOB (as done for Croatian & Swiss air)?

Just an idea...

I'm glad to hear somebody used it

Think a snowballs chance in Hades

Attached is my master Aircraft Roundel file and you will find roundels for Bolivia and Paraguay

Have fun........keep in mind this is my personal rough copy and was never intended to be used by anyone but me and it contains experimental images that have evolved over many years so WYSIWYG for Paraguay use France. Red outside blue center white middle so the Potez 25 that is already in the French OOB could be used for Paraguay. Bolivia is red yellow green from outside to center. Easy peasy

More than 150 never before published illustrations, complimented by an exhaustively researched text, document the little-known air war between Bolivia and Paraguay during the late 1920s and early 1930s. Full details of such aircraft as Fiat C.R. 20s, Curtiss Hawk IIs, Curtiss Ospreys, Potez 25s and all other types employed by both combatants, including acquisition, operations, and markings make this a must for historians, modelers, and anyone interested in golden-age aviation.

You will find most of those aircraft are already in the game except to my great surprise a Fiat Cr.20 so here's the whole set--just copy and paste the image

I have this book, that's why I asked about aircraft.

Anyway, many thanks for the icons.

Colombian markings....
