Display where I was conquered in FOG OF WAR log

[fecalspatterteef]

I apologize if this has been suggested; I couldn't find it...

In a fog of war game I can read in the log that someone took a territory, but I have no idea who took which territory (sadly, many players take my territories each round). It just has a "?". I have several suggestions.

1. Display accurate information to me for the battles that I lose.

2. Display information for anything (battles, deployments, reninforcements for continents, fortifications) occuring in territories adjacent to those that I own when the action occurs. For instance, if a fortification comes into a place adjacent to me from one that is not, say:

"<oppenent> fortified <adjacent territory name> from ?"

3. Do not display ANY information about double questionmark actions (where attacker and defender are not adjacent to any of my territories.)

What do others think about these three suggestions??

It would make things easier, but thats not necesarily a good thing.

If you pay attention to which countries you have before the end of each turn, or review the game log you would know what happened. As it is now you have to pay close attention to the details if you want to know.

Maybe a poll would be in order.

I think that's what makes the fog fog, you died in the fog and now can't see.
you could copy image and paste in a folder on your desktop after your turn on games like that. That would show where countries are at least. When playing alot of games in fog at once I forget where I was at times aslo. But in my longwinded opinion that is what it is all about.

I do agree with fecal and this is why I do not play fog games. It seems that you should at least know where your troops died.

This is a great idea, but a little too involved... at least for me.

If you pay attention to which countries you have before the end of each turn, or review the game log you would know what happened.

Again, note-to-selfs here are a good way to "pay attention", but I don't think anyone does this at the end of every turn... too involved as well, especially on huge maps like world 2.0.

My point is that there is no way you can tell what happened in certain situations... even with an overly involved, perfect memory system. (By perfect I mean remembering everything I could see) Maybe that is the way the fog of war is intended... I still enjoy it, however,
I thought that was the point of the log - to be an uninvolved perfect memory system.
