Default Re: Patch Improvements

1. It's maybe too much to ask, but it would be very nice to be able to see more detailed battle reports.

For example - in the late game there are always huge battles involving many hundreds troops on both sides. I think it would be very useful and nice feature, if in addition of simply telling me "Your troops won the battle, 30 out 150 of your non-magical troops died", the battle report would have a button whch said "View Detailed Battle Results". When the user press the battle it would tell him how many of each type of his troops die.


Many armies have some core "Elite" troops, and a lot of arrow/melee fodder. One of the big advantage of such detailed screen is that it would instantly tell you how many of your elite troops died, and how many of your trash troops die.



Currently there is no way of knowing this very useful inforamtion other than watch the battle(or count your elite sodiers after the battle). Using this option you can not only quikly know this result, but also ddecide if you want to watch this battle in replay or not.



2. Add one more statistic to brief battle result window, telling how many of your commanders has died, and how many were wounded during the battle

It is less important for the troops, but for commanders it's very good to know.


3. This has been probably said already, but please, add "monthly forging" command. This is huge timesaver. It is very convenient not to have to tell your 4 air mages to "forge Air Queels" every turn.


4. Add "Ignore Unit" command and shortcut. Ther are a lot of commanders who you just want to sit inside the castle with their troops. NOT patrol, but sit tight. Currently there is no way to permamently exclude then from being shown on "n" routine. This can be big timesaver.

5. Allow more accurate abjustments of magic reseach priorities. Like little "+" and "-" on both sides of the scale, to add one point of reseach or substract it.
