Since NATO and the US use slightly different symbols and I know the USSR also used different symbols, I am considering making a national perspective a user defined choice. I think my font can have up to 10,000 symbols and I have only used like 500 so far. However it complicates things from a record keeping and data basing perspective as every time I create a new unit type I will have to remember to make all the versions.

Due to these complications it is way down my priorities list as things like nuclear effect overlays, user created markers and distance calculators (to nearest city, allied/enemy unit, resource, marker, or nuclear blast) will offer more of a "gee-whiz" factor from my time allocated.
