Russo-German War 41-44 did so and it really helped.

Status: offline 		We looked at that, but the space became to cluttered. However when you click on a stack a right hand side window pops up with all the detailed info of the units. It's really nice, trust me...

I don’t think a small screen shot will get me in trouble.

In this picture the selected HQ is outlined in Red and its subordinate divisions are outlined in blue. Its parent HQ is outlined in orange and the other HQs that belong to this Army are outlined in yellow. If I had of selected the Army HQ all of its subordinate HQs would be outlined in blue.






Man, this map looks great...great color choices, nice crisp counters. Well done, can't wait for this game...

Status: offline 		There are 5 zoom levels in the game, this is zoom level 1 that Rick displayed, the one I showed at the top of the post is zoom 2. On 3 and 4 you don't have CV/MP numbers but unit types and get a great overview. Level 5 is a grand overview of the entire front, just unit colors. We also have a jump map option...

Hmmm ... how about getting rid on the strength numbers (13-16), because who cares, and have a vertical bar on each side of the chit. The one on the left goes from green to elite and the one on the right is strength, from beat-up to fresh and sassy! Obviously a elite PZ Div or Red Guard Armored Corp that is up to snuff is the bad boy I am looking to plug that hole in the line.

Oh and if you really want to see the numbers just right click on the chit and you get ALL the good stuff.
