Feature request: Pick the order of battles (already exists)

@Robbie_S Done now!

Defensive profile doesn’t allow differentiation by power. I mentioned it a few times months ago. No response. Probably won’t happen.

Yeah, the current system is pretty annoying. Even after having worked a management-level position in a game development company I’m still amazed by the odd UI quirks that end up in games. I’m always running across things that make me think ‘how did the developers themselves not find this immediately annoying and try to fix it’?, like having your ships decide to move to the ‘wrong’ (from your view) SZ by default.

If I have multiple choices for movement into battle, I should be allow to chose my path. The reason being that I might want to retreat into a different territory than the one that the software has automatically chosen for me.

One thing I would like to see is a way to see the match up during Combat Move before I complete the phase.

Clicking on the territory show not only what is already there but also what units you are moving in. In the Combat Move summary, show the match ups. The current screen (below) is useful but if I had the defenders in there too, I can review it an “Make Changes” when I realize I don’t have enough units for a battle.

@Striker I like Global the best, possibly among all wargames. But 42.2 has a faster, chesslike appeal.

I try to play 5 games at once and very quickly, which improves my skills but also leaves plenty of room for me to make mistakes…like speed chess at the renfest where 1 member of the KC chess club takes on 15 all-comers at one time, one move after the next then back to the first game…
