Game Play Video's?

Just watched the infantry tutorial video and it all looks very good.

A couple of suggestions for consideration down the road:
1. Clicking a hex and then clicking in the command panel at the bottom to select unit(s) and then clicking at the right panel for action type and then clicking the target hex is a lot of clicking. There may a more efficient method or perhaps there's a good reason for doing it this way? It appears to work OK so may just take getting used to, as all GUIs seem to do now, but it may be an issue with some players.
2. The LOS tool seems limited to just highlighting spotted enemy units in LOS? There should also be some way to see what hexes are in LOS when selecting a unit, or when selecting a hex, so players can consider what positions to move to.

I agree with pzgndr on his item 1. It reminds me of the John Tiller method of selecting weapons in the Squad Battles series. Seems to be extremely clunky. I hope a better solution will be realized before release.

I hope there are hotkeys.
