The pen/marshal's baton/pointer that changes to the national colors of whatever side you are playing is a very nice touch.
But at the risk of being an ingrate, the version of the pointer that I like best is the first one that you see before you load a scenario.
Is there any way to make the blank, generic, solid blue pointer a software pointer option?
So when you go into the display section (or whatever it is called) you can select hardware pointer (the ugly microsoft thing), generic software pointer, or side-specific software pointer.
