Power

[Congoblue]

Hi chaps,
After a couple of weeks on AACW2 I'm pleased to say it's a great improvement on the already great original game.
What I am really missing is a tooltip letting me know the size of my army in men, horses and guns, and while I can understand that the Power rating of a stack is an important and necessary aspect of the game mechanics, from a player's point of view I think it's too artificial. In real life a commander would have to weigh up his strength based on his own assessment of manpower, cohesion, leadership etc, and also assess his enemy's strength in the same way, sometimes based on rather dodgy intelligence.
How about an option to hide Power ratings altogether and display unit strength in terms of manpower and materials instead?

Try hovering your mouse pointer over the number that indicates the power of an unit, either a single unit or a division, the number of mens/horses/cannons appear in the botton part of the unit card and in the stack tab for the full stack.

Yes, but that's slightly harder to find as you have to open up the stack. I'm not the first to ask for men, horses and guns as a tooltip when the mouse hovers over the unit. I've just taken it a step further by suggesting an option to mask the Power rating for more realism. Just a thought....
Cheers.
