Banners - Love 'Em or Hate 'Em??

[magnum]

Ok, guess I'm in the minority. I didn't like them. Thought I would but when I saw them in the demo, with thier large size sticking up as high as they do and 'bouncing' up and down started to drive me nuts. I'd have prefered something a lot smaller and more subdued for banners. Actually ended up prefering the little green circles to the banners and thats saying a lot.

I love them , but they are annoying when you get close distance to troops to see the big poles between the soldiers , they should fade when getting close look ...

The banners itself are nice, but it breaks the atmosphere. If the banners were shorter and you saw soldiers actually carrying those flags, I would love them. But now, I don't like the huge wooden poles sticking out from a soldiers neck. I think I'll be fiddling around in the preferences once M2TW is out.
