Deployment Menu

Hi,

I would like to make a friendly suggestion.

Can a column be added to the Deployment Menu with the turn that the asset will be available for deployment?

I am making a spreadsheet for myself with the stating location of all the units on turn one. And where I am going to move that unit to, if anywhere. So I don't have to keep reinventing my first turn each time I start new game or play multiplayer. Yes, I am strange, but I want to make sure I don't forget anyone. It will be a check list. And after I started the spreadsheet I ran into "mission Creep" and I am adding a lot of the units being built and when they will be available. But having the turn number would be more useful to me than the date.

So I printed out a calendar for 1942 and will figure it out manually.

Not a major thing and certainly low on most people's priority list. But it would make it easier for planning purposes to know the turn the unit will be coming in.

Yes sadly the date is not the easiest way to tell when something will be available without a calendar.

And I don't have any of my dads old National Geographic calendars from the 40's laying around.

and something else about this I just noticed. Some units arrive on December23. Why December 23rd. If the first turn starts on Dec 7th, the 2nd turn starts on December 21. Isn't that when the unit can be deployed? Or is using a Wednesday instead of a Sunday just aesthetics?

Historical dates and for a bit of mixing.
