New CS?

[Jason Petho]

- I guess what I am looking for is for the unit counters to be informative as they are. In other words, to be able to view the map as a whole and to get a good understanding from it alone.

Can you expand upon this? What in particular are you interested in seeing?

- As almost everyone plays with Fog of War on, I assume the unit strength would be the other information, the other one could be a flag for disrupted / fatigued units (I'm not sure fatigue is visible with FoW).

Presently, I don't think these additions are possible in the 2D mode on the map. This would require coding, I believe.

- Having looked at the icons2D.bmp it seems that this would not really work at the end of the day... There's just not enough pixels available for PB / PL type of counters ...

No, unfortunately there isn't with the present bmp's.

- As you mention, this would require a completely new 2D zoom level. Speaking of which, as I have a modern HD screen, the current 2Ds don't really work for my old eyes anymore. The graphics are just way too small.

Yes. But as the basic level is too small, one could spend the time to replace the 2D level as a modification. Replacing level 5 with something larger, possibly. Of course, one would have to replace all level 5 related graphics.

Alternatively, adjusting your screen resolution to something else would increase the 2D icon sizes. But that doesn't resolve the issue of not having all the information on the counters you seek.
