Suggestion for improvement

Bought today and see a lot of potential. Was just browsing around in the Database and noticed something small that could be greatly improved. When looking at a formation, flight, unit, aircraft or weapon; just add a box showing the era. There are, for example, a LOT of Leopards, but no idea when they were introduced. I 'think' this would be simple and would be appreciated by those who haven't memorized Jane's for the last 55 years.

One other things that would be very helpful for beginners, but I don't see how it could be done. Somehow set up the Game Guide so you can read it while playing the game. Would be a huge help.

Yes, it might not be hard to do. There are a lot of T62 variants too, depending on the database you're using. If you haven't already, but sure to check the mods section of this forum. There are at least two new databases, plus France I believe!

Thx, as far as I could see there is one mod and one beta. But in Database I liked seeing some other countries. Will look into them after I get some sort of understanding of this beast. Wonder which side France fights on. :)

In theory, a formation/unit can be used by several factions. Weapons and ammunition certainly are. Ideally the details such as the years when it was used should be written in the comment field.

Most of the Game Guide topics are shown in the hint boxes when you press the F1 key.
