Hi, a feature I would like would be a doctrine set for surface AAW ships like:
AAW behavior:
- self defense only
- engage missiles and incoming aircraft
- engage everything

It is utterly frustrating to have my air defense vessels waste their SAMs on peripheral targets in their engagement zone that could just as easily been handled by a fighter.

Otherwise I'd like the implementation of day/night limitations for aircraft, as I like old school scens best.

One thing I would really like to see is a more detailed AAR.

For instance, instead of just what ammo was expended and what was lost, the AAR would tell us what unit was killed, which unit killed it, and what weapon was used. Adding time of kill would be nice, also. I know I enjoy looking over the AAR of other games to see what was truly effective and what wasn't and to know what happened to some of my units - some of those "mystery kills" would be resolved!

the more i think of it, the more i feel the game does need more realistic weather - ie, the weather should vary not only over time but also in different areas of the map - at least that it is a scenario editor option for determining areas of high and low temperate, light and heavy rain clould cover etc - provided these actually could make a difference in the game? certainly weather still has an effect on technologies today and moreso in the past.
if say one could even simulate the possible occurrence of a hurricane into the scenario area?

One feature i would love to see implemented sooner rather than later is the ability to hide reference points, thereby decluttering the map even more. A keyboard shortcut for this would be amazing. It is way too easy to click on the map and accidentally move a reference point. I know there is a toggle to lock them, but i find that padlock icon to be quite ugly. A keyboard on/off toggle would work quite well.

Good point! I voted for the Downed pilot feature. Would make it fascinating, sending out SF teams or HAHO/HALO Pararescuemen to secure the location of the wreck and/or Casualty for extraction!
