Unit Icons

Would it be possible for us to upload unit icons (the ones that would show on the battlefield, not the unit portrait)? Perhaps we could use transparent PNGs. Right now every unit is just a little circle.

What's wrong with circles? I don't thing it's a good idea to have different icons across the maps. We've tried several options during the original AW beta, and everyone seemed to agree that the current representation works best.

One part of me wants icons in the game, but if you think properly, most of the times you make stacks of two or more diferent types of units, and then the icon is not really helpful.

Hmmm... It would be nice though. We are literally creating radically different units. It would be nice to be able to create our own custom icons. If it's too much work, I udnerstand, it really isn't important but it would be nice.

You are correct, I like the current way you have it, but I would like a cavalry Icon, instead of a tank icon for heavy cavalry, ruins my moment when im sending 100 cavalry
