    why not just put em all in star. we can pretend they are in the barracks and load/unload etc there?

    because.....

    We will have to retrench those we want to use first every time we go on an adventure. Imagine doing THAT 5-6-7 times a day..

    There are several reasons why I would rather not have the forced auto-landing/-retrenched unloading..
    • the insane freeze-lag to prevent possible zone lock
    • the mess of garrisons on wrong place and troops needed to be reassign
    • the rollbacks and switched locations

    There are better ways to deal with this..

    I think a marker icon is an absolutely brilliant idea. I would love to see this simple change implemented. I am particularly lazy on epic addies and just send everything. Far too many generals for the landing zones to accomodate, especially on the MCC where the number of landing spots is limited.
    HOTFIX!

    Generals In Star Menu

    Could we please have some indication to show the difference between generals sitting in star menu and generals sitting on the island. ATM they both show in star menu looking the same. This makes it difficult to quickly identify generals that have failed to land on an island and need a landing spot.
