Etiquette

[von Waldenburg]

I think looking at the strength dialog to know the ratio of forces is normally enough information to begin with.

If we think about what situations we have in history, normally we will find diferent levels of knowledge about enemy dispositions. So if one wants a truly historical game, can even replicate or try to, that inteligence level. For example, the germans in Minsk'44 thought that the big strategic offensive was in the south so they didnt know about all the russian armour massed in front of the Bielorusian balcony.

Normally the historical and player's knowledge about enemy dispositions dont match I would say.
