I love Black forest

But how much does a death 1 scale kill of population in each turn?

Who cares, they're just dumb peasants.

Rather easy. It is mostly a matter of me making some sprites. The coding is simple enough to let me do it. Sailing and inquisition are other such traits I intend to make accessible. Problem is I spend too much time answering your Posts

I do believe they have additional effect, but I'm not sure if they have one X*5% chance or X number of 5% chances.

POST LESS, MAKE SPRITES MORE!

You could just use the pocket ship symbol as the 'sailing' symbol for ease of use.

How about special leader commands? For example, "Spy" (instill unrest and better scouting info) and "Assassinate" could definitely use icons - they confuse a lot of people who are unsure which stealth units do what. "Heal Troops" (along with the heal %), "Summon Allies" (automatic or ordered) would be helpful too. I built a lab in a witch province once because the description indicated they have healing powers... but it turns out that they don't have a "Heal" command

A few other useful iconizable stats are "Produces Supplies", "Poison Cloud", "Disease Cloud", "Animal", "Shape Shifter", "Animal Awe", "Poison Spikes", "Castle Defense Bonus", and "Patrol Bonus".

P.S.

and "Newbies, don't build this unit because it will only confuse you."

Shame on you! Now you've had me making sprites in the middle of the night. Five hours of sleep, but not too difficult students tomorrow.

You got inquisition, sailing, castle defence, animal, forging, and supplies.

Good night

You know... I know why Saber Cherry of all people, whose work with categorizing is so useful for modders and scenario builders, would want all of these powers listed and marked. I have to say I disagree, though. Call me crazy, but I thought it was darned cool when I first started playing the game that I had to read the flavor text of the units, because you could never REALLY be sure what was there for looks and what was describing an actual power!
