It would be convenient if you set set up command groups. (eg. assign several vehicles to 1 of 5? groups so that you could rapidly select a group of vehicles to send on a mission.) Would save always tracking down stray units that got missed.

Maybe assign patrol zones/routes for one/several vehicles.

Just random thoughts. Great game.

I agree, it would be nice. What about having an option to reprogram the application buttons while holding the stylus to the screen to create groups? :P

Good ideas! I also wish that when a unit was away from an area, you couldn't see what went on in it.

Really what is going on here is trying to match this game with Age of Empires II: Age of Kings... greatest PC strategy game I've ever played. Being able to play that on the go though? Wow... I'd like to add that there should be spawn locations too... like when Guards are being created they have a point chosen that they have to walk to right after coming out of the HRC.

How about walls too? I would like to be able to full fortify bases with those grays walls that seem to just be there in the environment that I can't destroy.

And maybe garrisoning too? Putting units into buildings and vehicles to add damage/damage resistance? Send five Liberators into a base and suddenly out come twenty-five guards... sweetness.

Never played Age of Empires. Was actually thinking back a bit from there to the orignal Dune, DuneII and even Warcraft for this feature.
