As it is now, and I wish I could post a screenshot, it is set up like this


Mission Target: Admin
Hover over mission name to see description
Target Offense
3 Covert Turns / 12 Supply Turns needed
How many assassins to send? XXX
(action button)

Target Defense
3 Covert Turns / 12 Supply Turns needed
How many assassins to send? XXX
(action button)

Target Covert
3 Covert Turns / 12 Supply Turns needed
How many assassins to send? XXX
(action button)

Target Assassins
3 Covert Turns / 12 Supply Turns needed
How many assassins to send? XXX
(action button)

Now i have to scroll down to use all the options, plus if you put the assassins in the wrong box, or you press the wrong action box you get an error, for ease and simplicity i suggest 1 box to list the amount of assassins and 4 action buttons, kinna like this. Oh and since all the cost are the same why list them 4 times? this way you can list it once. 2 suggestions listed below

Mission Target: Admin
Hover over mission name to see description
Assassination
3 Covert Turns / 12 Supply Turns needed
How many assassins to send? XXX
(Target offense)
(target defense)
(target spies)
(target assassins)

Or

Mission Target: Admin
Hover over mission name to see description
Assassination
3 Covert Turns / 12 Supply Turns needed
How many assassins to send? XXX

(Target offense) (target defense) (target spies) (target assassins)

This would allow for a smaller page footprint and no scrolling

Just an idea

I do too, and it would be nice if it somehow held the last set of numbers put in. So you don't have to type in 250,000 every time, but IDK if that's doable or not.

I can't let go of my FF.

Tried Opera twice and both times it failed, tho more then likely due to a fault of mine.

What you think about the idea tho admin?

consider the idiot-proofness of your idea

if it's large as it is now then not even a noob will click the wrong button.

Not sure I follow you?

The 2 reasons I made this suggestion is
1. I hate having to scroll everytime I assassinate
2. I clicked the wrong button, i put the men in the box and then hit the one above it as the one below as offscreen, yes this makes me an idiot but still. main point is less footprint, less/no scrolling
