    Default Icons for unit status?

    I was wondering if the EB team have seen the icons used in the TATW mod for unit status, near the text a small icon appears that indicates how tired the unit is, and how their moral is.

    I understand english pretty well, but i am not a native speaker and that is why i loved these icons, it made much easier to see which units were tired/wavering, without having to read the words. You can just look at the picture and see if it is green, yellow, or red.

    Here is how it looks like in the tatw mod:



    I thought this was a pretty useful thing, as it made playing easier (specially for the people who may have problems to understand all the english words, like me when i first started playing) as you don´t have to read all words but just looking at the picture you get the idea of how tired/how is the moral of the unit.

    I would like to suggest to the team to include something along these lines, so that it can help people who don´t have much knowledge of english, and in general makes things a lot easier as you can quickly check the status of your units. I missed a lot these small icons when i played other mods.

    it does breath a lot of life into it, and makes it a bit better. I like the idea; have to get permission to use the icons and scripts from TATW team though.

    Well what i said is to use that idea, not to use exactly the same pictures. I guess it would be possible to create other icons more fitting with the EB style.
