Invasion Overlay Icon

#1 Post by Geoff the Medio »

There's a bit of programmer art I'd like replaced:

This is displayed over troop ships in the fleets window when they have been ordered to invade. That's supposed to be a lower leg + boot, in case it's not clear. "Boots on the ground" and such. Human-centric, but I'm not sure what else to do for ground troop invasions... maybe a downward arrow of some sort?

The current colonization and scrapping equivalents are nicer:

Perhaps a sword or two crossed guns would be good. And it's not bad being Human-centric. After all only humans will be playing the game :lol:

Something fancier could be considered later.
