Description

On APP-6, friendly units are marked as box, and hostile units are marked as diamond. But for now there is only backgrounds for the friendly units.

Yes usually you won't use the enemy units on your own TO&E, but I have used it occasionally. And also it could be used for OpFor generated by Stratcon someday as well. I do not think that it is an urgent matter, but perhaps it would be useful someday.

Research direction

No file or test is named. Start by locating the existing friendly-unit formation backgrounds in the data repository and compare their asset format and naming. Add matching hostile-unit backgrounds using diamond markers, then verify that the new assets are consistent with the existing formation icons.
