    well, you could change the background color for these particular units: red for mercenaries or sth?

    of course, to do that, one would have to edit the picture of the unit itself, not the background proper-going by RTW.

    The blue lotus mod had that. It had an orange circle with a white M in the upper right hand corner of their mercenary unit cards.

    You can't have separate unit cards for single and multiplayer battles. I'm not sure why you think it is cheesy, it is no different to the symbols showing the experience, weapon or armour levels which we already have.

    That wouldn't work very well as unit cards use transparencies as opposed to an actual coloured background, you would get ugly red squares if you did it that way.

    Considering the Spaniards hadn't discovered Potosi yet, can we have gold coins instead? ^_^

    personally I, the great decision maker of the Europabarbarorum-Team, could live with either, yet I suggested silver because Drachmae and mnai are commonly based on silver rather than gold.

    We can't have them in the lower left as there are the upgrades icons.

    Then the ammo bar would obscure it, we went for 2 gold coins in the top right in the end.

    Such that the gold coin on top hides about three fourths of the coin below it? ^^ A bit picky. Just curious.
