f you've been playing Dominions for several years now then odds are you don't enjoy watching the battles play out because you've seen them so many times before, but for those of us who are new, we still enjoy the experience and would rather not have the outcome spoiled before we see it.
I still enjoy watching the battles, but in larger games it very quickly becomes a lengthy process to watch every battle. When you're at that stage it would be really, really helpful to be able to see at a glance which battles require further attention and which you can ignore.

That's why you will never see this suggestion realized, because you are sacrificing the enjoyment of others for your own gains.
Well, now, that's surely certainly up to Illwinter and not us mere mortals, no? My wish for clear information clashes with your wish for suspense -- but the reverse is equally true, so you are sacrificing my enjoyment just as much as I am yours. Neither side has the moral high grounds here.

I will argue in favour of what I like, and you will argue in favour of what you like, and eventually the people who make the game will decide.
