Battle report screen info

I guess the number of troops displayed only indicates number of troops present, not actually commited to battle.

It would be really nice to have both, to gain better insight into what really happened and why, and a better grasp of the effects of frontage...

Each battle report page uses brackets up top to show the number of units actually in the battle line and the number of elements. This is interesting information.

In prior games I could go through each round just by clicking consecutively on Start, 1, 2, 3, End etc, but here I need to click on E to open the list, click on what I want, click out, then click E again etc. Much nicer to have S 1 2 3 E as buttons on top to click through.

I'd really like to see the name of the battle location displayed on the battle circle when it appears.

Agree. Battle report improved a lot in the recent games but the main issue still remains imho: a lot of not very useful and diffucult to scan data but nothing which get you the real dynamics (and eventually the "epicness" ) of the battle.
