I like to use a single unit/stack in multiple hasty attacks, them possible move and repeat. However, after every attack the unit/stack is deselected, and I have to manually select the unit/stack again to move/attack again with the same unit. Could you add an option not to automatically unselect the attacking unit after attack?

It makes you feel being in command

Well, as always it is possible to restore the selection after the battle, but soon there could no place for all desired options, unless we do it a default.

I agree it should be an option - maybe in release 3 or something...

Also, the default where a single click selects the whole stack makes for errors - moving units I didn't plan to move. It should be one click to select the top unit. Another single click to cycle through to the next unit. Quick double click to select the whole stack.
