WOw, excellent work Hicks!
It would be nice if you added Italian medals, (1940-43).
Also Ebro mod: Spanish Nationalist and Spanish Republican forces.
If you are adventurous, you could research Greece, Albania, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, the 'Low Countries', Norway, Brazil (fought in Italy '43-44), and even Thailand/Siam (minor Axis power allied w/Japan '43-45).

Excellent work again Hicks.
May I suggest adding:
-Panzer assault Badge. In place of the infantry assault badge. With the possibility of having various nations, one could do a distinct "vehicle" nation with it's own voices (more radio crackling noises, using their own jargon and with background vehicle sounds) medals and uniforms. Likewise with other distinc, branch specific awards, like navy awards for US Marines I think they received some distinct medals. SS troops... I'm not sure probably they had the same medals as the Heer.
-Close Combat clasp. Come on it is an award called literally Close Combat, how is this not in the game? Could be in place of the Iron Cross 1st class or german cross and pretending a subsequent 2nd Iron cross2nd class is the upgraded 1st class.

I've got quite a few drawing projects on at the moment, but I can add these on to the list
I looked at most of the European nations and have some Italian medals done. I can have a look for more as a set of resources that people can tag into mods.
It has some miniature images crisp clear already, I think it will only need very minor tweaks to use them in close combat.
Good find!
I ought to be able to fill in a few gaps with this and be able to add some more resources for others to use. I don't suppose you have something that makes doing the shading on an A2 size portrait go faster as well?

Hello:
Why not work in an alternative medal to Order of Kutuzov for the Soviet side? For example the Order of Glory.
If I correct in this, the Order of Kutuzov was mainly awarded to unit leaders and deputies.
The Order's grades relates roughly to the three levels in the Military Art (In Soviet Military Doctrine): 1st= Strategic level, 2nd= Operational, 3rd= Tactical.

Bye.
What I'm likely to do is collect medals together, edit them and make them available as a resource for people to use in arrangements they like
