Report history
All that said, the implementation is very well done so far. Thanks very much for your hard work!
What if they were displayed under the board instead ?
The summary display currently seems to mostly be the player mat, but it also shows the enlistments. If it could also show the mech deployments, this compact summary display would be perfect.
It might be a nice option to display all of the full player and faction mats below the board, but I probably wouldn't use that configuration.
I'll also mention that I don't play too much on BGA anymore, so other perspectives would probably be more useful.
Thanks again for all of your hard work on this game. It's already very nice in its current form!
Usually I just want to know if I'll get attacked after making a particular move. So I definitely care about the mech deployments, and ideally also available actions (what happened last turn, plus whether there's a factory card). Less importantly, I might also care whether their move action is upgraded.
Sometimes I'll want to figure out people's next moves (usually in the context of "which recruit do I want now"), which basically requires the entire player board (bottom action costs and corresponding top actions). This might be too much information to display concisely, though.
I don't usually care about enlistments (you'll usually either get generic stuff like mechs or end up with all of them, so I don't adjust strategy to not feed people), but I guess there are cases like where building a structure to end the game would bump someone up a popularity tier that would be good to know about.
The board's big enough that displaying under the board probably isn't super useful (if I have to scroll for it, clicking people directly isn't much harder), but maybe others would disagree here.
