1. Editing of start lines. It would help campaign creation very much is the start lines would be editable hex by hex like in SPWaW. In my camaign I had to give deploy instructions if I wanted the player to deploy in a corner of a map for example.

Agree in principle. Fixed lines might be inherent in code though, don't know.

2. Setting a retreating hex like it is done in SPWaW. This way all unit can retreat towards that direction.

Disagree. This engine's retreat handling is superior to SPWaW IMHO.

3. Increase the number of objective flags(or allow higher values to obectives.) Moder equipment is very expensive and objectives cannot be expensive enough to make a higher priority.

Totally agree in principle. However, since the objective flag points seem to be 8-bit values (hence limited to < 255) increasing them would break backwards compatibility with existing scenarios and save game files.
