Immersion Features

As I understand it, BFTB will provide several immersion features such as showing photos of equipment. I was wondering if it will also show photos of the commanders as part of their bio? [&o]

Also, I was thinking that it would be cool if when one right clicks on a peice of terrain and calls up the terrain box that photos could be linked to that terrain object polygon (either by type, such as town or instance, or by insatnce such as Bastone..which would overide the type). Then the map designer could  include a dozen or two photos that are included as part of the map graphics and that could be linked to objects on the map like woods, mountains, towns so if one right clicked on a instance photo such as Bastone that would call up the Bastone picture but if one right clicked on a generic town then a generic town picture would appear. This could be a great area for modding by user as well. I would think that it would add to the immersion value of the game and thus perhaps broaden its appeal.

There on the wishlist, but don't know when we'll get top them.

BTW, I think the unit emblem (eagle, lightening bolt, etc) could also be fit along with the commander picture in the corner or beside it.
