PipMod is a small mod that changes the appearance of the icons or 'pips' that appear on the battle radar in Empire: Total war. In vanilla the pips are too detailed for the size they are, and pretty much unreadable. This mod simply changes the pips to squares for infantry, crosses for artillery and circles for cavalry. Also the general star was cleaned up a bit. Does not change naval pips.
Brilliant & simple mod, makes the minimap far easier to use and more appealing to look at.
P.S. I think toombs1234 is just trying to be a d**k.
