Custom military symbol

[G F]

Hello,

I have a short question that since I'm trying to use your genius work to run a medieval game with my friends, I wonder if it's possible to add emblems onto the military symbols?

Thank you!

Thank you for your message and great to hear that you are using https://www.map.army to run your medieval game with friends! That's a fantastic use case, and we love hearing about the creative ways people utilize the platform.

Regarding your question about adding emblems onto military symbols: currently, this specific feature is not natively supported within https://www.map.army, nor is it planned for our immediate development pipeline.

However, we understand the need for custom iconography, especially for non-standard military doctrine or historical games. A common workaround our users employ is utilizing the Image Overlays feature to layer emblems or crests over the standardized symbology.

This method allows you to import and position custom images (like your medieval emblems) directly onto the map where the corresponding unit symbol is located. You can find a detailed discussion and instructions on how to use this workaround here: https://groups.google.com/g/militarymap/c/4rS6O1cH2cw

Please do not hesitate to contact us should you have further questions on https://www.map.army.

Best regards
Martin from the map.army team
