Wish list (1)

[Eckerslyke]

If the game designers could produce new features at the stroke of a (pen? mouse? keyboard?), and expense was no object, what would you like to see by way of enhancements to our battling software?

Top of my list would be something to enforce the more common house rules so that I would not accidentally violate them, (and which would also prevent deliberate violation by someone who is cheating). Accompanied, perhaps, by an optional rule which permitted them to be turned off when not desired for a particular battle.

For example, a common house rule is to have skirmishers not voluntarily going beyond three hexes from their parent unit when in clear terrain. It takes a quite a bit of care to make sure you don't do this accidentally, and it can be embarrassing when you forget it, and make an 'illegal' move.

Wouldn't it be nice if the software could throw up an error message when it detects that a skirmisher is going too far, and this rule is ON? A bit like it does when you try to move a skirmisher to a hex adjacent to a cavalry unit.

I'm not suggesting that this would be easy, or even feasible. It's just one of the things I sometimes wish we had.

Is there anything else people would like to see?
