Status: offline 		I didn't see a wish list started, so I thought I'd make one.
My first idea is:

Core units- Sometimes they are hard to tell from auxillaries. Maybe a bolder color.
I also noticed that, on the setup screen, it is hard to tell how many core units you can add until you place your units. For example, the numbers say in reserve 26/26. Meaning I have 26 out of 26 slots filled. So I think I can't add any. Then after I place the units on the map, I see something like 3/26, allowing me three more units. Why didn't it say 26/29 in the first place?
Thanks for a great game.

Did you check our dedicated MP maps already? Many of them are built around this very principle (few initial units, lots of prestige).

So if there is no way - I'd like to put this on my wishlist.

You can right-click enemy unit to open its details, or you can toggle the stats panel on (with "i" button) and hover enemy unit to see its stats. Does this help?

YES! I'm having trouble with this too.

And I wonder if an optional unit base artwork could be added (like the John Tiller Campaign Series) - it's sometime hard for me to tell what a unit is owing to the color of the terrain underneath.

I'll check after work, it was really annoying not being able to see how far those bunkers can shoot. But I'll doubt that the right click will work, this is something you do automatically to find more infos.

Well it works for me. ;) If it does not work for you, check your mouse interface setting in game menu. Right click for more info is used in 1-button mode. In 2-button mode right button is used for moves/attacks, and so naturally does not work for invoking unit details. In 2-button mode info is invoked aith Alt+click.

This explains it, I'm playing in 2-button mode..

Also, is it possible to see caracteristics of a unit during the deployment phase with a right click on it ?

Status: offline 		Some of these are just my vote for what has already been posted:

1. one more zoom in level.

2. unselect key (for air units that are difficult to unselect under certain circumstances).

3. display "FOW" in addition to the already existing terrain mouse over info (terrain type and coordinates) that is displayed below the unit buttons on the right hand panel whenever the hex is indeed in FoW.

Thanks again for such a clean launch!

A lot of people have commented about the lack of a library. I think many of them actually mean glossery.

I do not remember if PG and AG had one, but Pacific had a pretty good one. I could click on the flag of a country and I could look at the stats of every unit in the game in one place. It just contained a picture of the unit, it's game stats and a little descriptive test. The descriptive test would probably be optional since I can google anything I'm really curious about.

Is it possible to change the order?

Soft attack against soft defense.
Hard Attack against hard defense.
Air attack against air defense.

The problem is, there is no soft, hard and air defense. There is ground, air and close defense, and these defense types do not really correspond to attack types, they are completely different. Both soft and hard attacks are calculated against ground defense, unless the attacker is infantry and combat happens in close terrain - then close defense rating is used.

Yes I did, though not all of them. That's where I got the general idea from, but I mean reaaaally big maps with 50 something turns :-)

Status: offline 		1) After purchase go back to unit list. Would like to stay in purchase screen.

2) When upgrading get back to full strength for free (I think this has been discussed).

3) When select unit in list would like map to jump & center on that unit.

4) I'll think of others...
