Gents,  

What was the rationale for a redesigned menu interface? Were players demanding it? 

There are 22 icons (Now under Unit and Combat menus) that I believe most players use on a regular basis. But the only way to display these is to either select Unit or Combat menus separately or be forced to display ALL menu icons? For example, should Change Rail Mode carry the same weight and has the same usage as Next Stack icon? But ALL icons are displayed, whether you ever use them or not.  But once you display ALL menu icons, now you got to do some mouse flying / searching. For example, Next Stack icon is upper left, but Visible Hexes is all the way to the right. Then back to left mid-point for Artillery Dialogue. Then you need to cursor far right again for Reachable Hexes. Then back to far left for Change Travel Mode, etc. Hopefully, there are no color-blind persons playing TOC? For example, the Change Travel Mode and Highlight Travel Mode use the same icons, but different colors. How do these persons distinguish which identical icon to use? Trial and error?

Please don't suggest that I hide all icon menus and just use the drop-down menus. That's not how I was playing prior to the new menu interface. I should not be forced to play that way now.

Menu is overly complicated and cluttered. Display the most utilized menu icons. (Unit and Combat) Hide the others.

Update: I reinstalled an earlier Kiev 43 Gold version. Problem solved! 

If the gold version is still compatible with 4.1 and can be played no problem, I'll do that.
