That would be sweet. Better rule feedback is the single aspect of the series I wish would get more love-- way before graphics enhancements. Not only for rule selection; imagine having tooltips/status bar/contextual info like fire value/loss calculation on-screen when you hover the target cursor on a hex, maybe a breakdown of applicable modifiers along with essential parameter data (like weapon ranges for the ACW games). Of course I have no idea how difficult it would be to implement something like that.

Anything is possible given the right game engine, programming time, money, and prioritization?
The real question you should ask developers is how probable any of these suggestions - mouse roll overs and on-screen tooltips "are" possible and "will" be implemented?
