Yodel!
I was originally thinking about the "label units" (similar to labeling places
on the map) idea that was discussed at least in 2006 on the forum (haven't
found much else, but haven't searched a lot either.)
Here's an (arguably) simpler idea, because that's the one thing I desperately
wish to use unit labels for: mark loyal units in some way. (I often lose
loyal units because of not protecting them enough. Mostly avoidable if I
would have noticed which units were loyal while moving them...)
I was thinking about a mark similar to the gold/silver crown that marks the
leader and his friends. Perhaps a team color crown? Or just make the team
color marker square instead of round (so no additional space is used for the
marker.)
This idea could obviously be extended to include representation of the other
traits (below the "health indicator"? Right side or at the top of the
character? Encoded in in morse in the team-color disc below the unit?) but I
fear this is not possible without making the graphics ugly/cramped. But I
think "loyal" is a bit a special trait and deserves the extra handling.
cheers
