Suggested Option: Alternative army setup display.

How have you lost the ability to double click?

I've never seen that problem.

I do agree that some summary option would be nice. Especially for those nations with autosummons.

I have had this, it seems to happen when you have huge armies in a province/army/garrison.

The loss of double click to select all like units in a garrison is a problem that I have encountered since Dom2 for sure and if I remember right, in DomPPP as well. It only occurs when I have really large garrisons, and is irritating, but nothing that I can't live with.

(This morning, I managed to shuttle enough Maenads out of the main garrison box to get my White Centaurs to show up.

Splendid idea, really, but I don't know if the engine allows it. Then again, I know nothing of the engine, so don't take me too seriously.

It's even worse when your playing someone like LA Ermor, it quickly gets pretty hard to distinguish between LD Praetorians, Velites and Legionarres, let alone select them.

I've been asking for something like this for a while.

Yes, it would be most helpful when you have a variety of troop types mixed in; right now, I suspect that they're sorted by their individual unr's.

One might want a way to split stacks by number of stars and 'has an affliction', to merge stacks, or to pull down an arbitrary number from one stack into a new one.

For that matter, I'd still like to be able to see how the army would look on the actual battlefield -- overlapping squads can result in some pretty weird deployments.
