Dear MadMat,

I would like to give some feedback on the production tab in-game. In its current iteration it is a step backwards from wargame in terms of clarity due to the way the quantity of the units in reserve is represented.

The stack of cards, with each card representing a unit, makes it difficult to judge exactly how many units you have in reserve whenever you have a unit quantity of three or more. During a hectic game it is critical that the exact number of units in reserve can be instantly viewed.

Secondly -and this is more personal- as someone who plays with the production tab permanently open, the stack of cards (especially from high quantity infantry units) needlessly constricts vision.

My proposal is therefor to include a big ass green number on the unit cards in the production tab in game to denote their quantity, just as is currently visible in the deckbuilding menu. I think this is a sensible suggestion that everyone can get behind.

If this number is added I would personally like to see the stack of cards removed altogether from the production menu to minimize clutter from the UI.

Kind regards,
