After playing the latest set of 4 Scenarios, I had fun, I found it incredibly unpleasant to stare at MOST of the UI and not my units. There is only so much information that the UI currently provides, and it feels more like clutter to me than actually useful info I need up constantly. 

First example shows the amount of space you have to view in 1920x1080, shown in red. A little under 40% of my screen is hidden by UI that COULD be simplified down with a minimize button. 



What I am proposing is something like below, Just a button that minimizes all the fluff text and space between things. I dont need a "My Battle Management" always at the top, or my countries Icon off to the side. After you've been playing awhile,  you should know what color you are playing as. Further, You will maybe not want to see the support and reinforcements tab when you have none. Decluttering the UI would go a long way in showing off these beautiful graphics you all have toiled long and hard to make! 

Excellent Suggestion. Thanks for your effort with the pics. A clear and simple solution.  

Furhermore, please enable "tab" to switch between units. Also autoswitch to next unit after finishing action of a unit would be nice. 

Last but not least: I would consider to change the color of the battle map. Why not use the default terrain colors of the game and just mark the border of fightzone and deployment zone. No need to show the battlemap in white. Just looks awkward. 

Yea the combat UI needs to be minimized a lot. There isn't that much important information that you need to see at all times. Your 2nd picture is a much more efficient use of space while relying all the necessary information.

I wish I had the option to vote up this idea.  I was thinking something similar - in the battles it feels like I am looking at around 1/3 of my screen and the UI is taking up the rest.

I  think there IS a way to upvote. Its just with G2G PTS and isnt called upvoting like it is everywhere else on the internet. Dunno, I  could be wrong.

You're right. To do so you click on the button at the right side of the thread with the up arrow icon. To the right of said icon is how many points the thread currently has.

A minimize button would be great. How far can you zoom out during combat?

You can zoom out pretty far but you lose the animations and sound of your units. I guess to some, the battle UI is fine but I find it pretty cluttered

I had the same criticism about the battle UI

But wow, that is a great suggestion you posted there!

I would love to see such a UI in the final game

I love your suggestion since this was an issue I also criticised. But I also felt similar to the UI outside the Battles. Hope they clean it up a bit.

Agreed. I hope to see this adopted.
