Army Identification Idea

I don't know if this matches anyone else's playstyle, but I tend to have a dedicated garrison and an actual offensive army. I know we can rename units which I've been using, but it would be awesome if we could have a badge or flag system. That way we can identify our own armies at a glance.


Currently, all armies have the same identification. It would be cool if we could either change the emblem or change the basic shape of the flag. For instance, if my defensive armies could have a squared flag rather than the pointed bottom, then my offensive armies could have the pointed bottom. This way if I move a garrisoned army out to assist or a piece of my offensive army to back up a siege, I can easily identify their purpose after a battle without checking the unit names


I've also currently been using a strategy of 3 armies moving as one. 2 with a standard setup of melee and range, then a 3rd army that moves with them consisting of spears and cavalry. An emblem or flag shape would allow me to mark "this army is the muscle, this army is the support, etc." This could help the player identify their own units quicker and allow combined arms movements like this rather than just balancing each individual army


I don't know if this would be a difficult thing to implement at this stage however, and I'm really not sure how much of the community would even support an idea like this.

Hello, to give some visual about your thinks : is it somethings like that you have in head ?


An option to add the flag on each army individually and a display of this flag nearby the empire identification.

If we do that, I'm not sure I want this to be visible to other empires.

Something like that would be awesome. It could only be visible to the player and allies, maybe only allies if they have the shared intelligence agreement. Just any way to distinguish different armies. At the moment I'm basically just remembering positions for all my armies and I station them at specific garrisons during peace time
