Poll: To many tank and gun crews running around the battlefield?

[swagman]

I don't mind what an opponent does, as long as its agreed to up-front in the pre-game negotiation...

If an opponent wishes to use a tactic which is non-standard (in that most players don't commonly use it), then in my view they should announce it up-front and if acceptable, then go right ahead.

I think it achieves little, since the icons make it is easy to distinguish differences, except to waste his time in doing so...what annoys me most when an opponent does it is that I also have to waste my time checking each unit to verify its type.

I have a whole list of "to be disclosed", though I rarely issue it to opponents...as well as renaming, I include calling re-inforcements.

I used to name units stuff like:
Snoopy, Dumpy, Blitzen, Berlin Babe, Moscow Molly, etc. but I eventually lost interest in it.

I did try one time to rename a truck to "Ammo Carrier" to see how enemy aircraft would react. They didn't.

Far too much intelligence about enemy formations in the game. How in heck would a guy know that a formation had suffered "3 casualties" when this is supposedly including hang-nails, trench-foot, shell-shock, sprained ankles,typhus, etc?
