Awesome! If you are treating each unit independently, will they be able to gain experience, training, or upgrades independently later?

I like!

Yep. That zoom is what's in the game.

we hope to have some surprises in too in the UI dept.

I like the idea of veterancy in the units, it would be nice if they did level up and gain strength and or features.  I know you have mentioned that armies won't be disposable and veterancy would make a few players think twice before sacrificing a large group of units.   It sounds like there's a lot of features you would like to implement budget willing ? I'm assuming if this game gains a lot of traction with all the dx12 advertising and I turn a lot of sales, does that mean it potentially gets some more team funding from stardock ?

Looks really good. Hope this game will sell good enough so the art budget is bigger for your next game.

I meant to ask this a few times but the picture of the unit, the unit itself has a black blocky thing, I assume that is a placeholder for another weapon system?

I think this was answered months ago but I would like to ask again.

About the zoom, it looks really nice and as I mentioned before the zoomed in textures look a lot sharper than before, amazing!

Looks good, I can't wait to try it for myself. I'm excited about the zoom/up changes. I just love using zoom as a movement tool and I'm glad you guys gave a little bit more to us who enjoy that .

Ladies and gentleman, let me give you a good life lesson.  Don't browse the Ashes forums whilst drunk on a mobile device.  You will end up seeing an old post and because you're drunk and on mobile not realize it's a post that has been here for 6 months.  You will then reply saying that you are excited for this new feature that has been in the game for 6 months because although you couldn't see the photos on mobile you assumed that they were showing a bigger zoom range.....

Sorry about that
