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.

wow. the vanilla really looks like that? I just bought e:tw. it looks like the mini-map's zoomed out too much on the top. ...if that REALLY is how the vanilla looks, I'll definitely download this mod.
