Scourge of War Boards

For some reason, the map legend doesn't appear when I'm using this mod - it's no biggie and at first I though it was deliberate but I can see from the screenshot on Page 1 that it should.

The legend was removed some time ago. That screenshot was of the 1.0 version.

Love the mod, is there a "texture map" plugin that works with this mod?

No. You'll have to assemble a group of them and create a mod. If you use the large map version of Couriers&Maps, you'd need to enlarge them.

How do I activate the mod in the game? I've downloaded it from the 1st post. In the Scourge of War folder, I've created a folder called "Mods" and I unzipped it there. The only other folder at the Scourge of War folder is "Work". In the game, when I click on Modifications, it doesn't show up.

Inside the SOW folder should be a folder named Base and another named Docs in addition to the Work folder. If not, you must have another version of SOW somewhere on your computer which has all the correct folders.

On the other hand, if you do have those folders, go to your mods folder and make sure there is a sub-folder in it named CouriersAndMaps. If not, you didn't unzip the folder properly.

Dumb question--is this mod already included in the anniversary edition? (I bought my copy last month) I don't see it in the modifications list, but the maps look the same as what I have now, so I don't want to have a redundant download. Just checking.

This mod is not included in the stock GB game. It is meant to play sending orders with couriers and the mini-maps are the same but bigger.

Cool, thanks for the quick reply.

Some changes have been made to how the game plays as well - artillery has been beefed up, morale is a little more brittle, flanking fire is more decisive, and some other things.
