Played the old series a ton when they came out. I noted in playing the game, the UI changes that were made - honestly rather have the older in game UI.

The newer game at higher resolution makes those Unit, Minimap and Force menus very hard to read. Their position on the screen is not intuitive - upper left, lower left and lower right means panning my head around a 30" monitor.

I'm sure its well past any changes or updates that might be made in the game by now after 5 years, but in the future perhaps make these game menus movable and scalable. That would go a long way to making it easier to manage. That and an Options button you can get to in game, noticed that missing too.

I see your problem and have a similar one when playing on the 27". Resizing would be great. Moving them around is possible tough. I have to test it, but i think Right click with the mouse let you drag windows around.

Thanks for your feedback Saxxon.

As lorentzt mentioned, the UI components on the battle screen are moveable. Right-click and drag allows you to reposition them where you like.

I agree. Squads of 5, 4, 3, or even 2 men are ineffective at holding locations or of advancing. You have to get everyone in one small area to overtake an enemy position and get concentrated firepower, but then the rest of the map is undefended and unoccupied. Designers should go back to squads of 8-11 men. And make taking over enemy equipment possible. You don't think people used MG-42's when they could get their hands on them ?? Or Panzerfausts?? Of course they did.
