Replays really need to show who won at the end. All too often a game stops, and I can't work out who surrendered :)

it would also be good if from turn 1 of a replay you could see where all the SA's are for both sides, maybe either as a paused bit at the start (with mini map highlighting them) or just show the flags all the time during the replay.

obviously this wouldn;t work on replays for uncompelted games, so either make this only for finished games or maybe only show SA's that have been revealed so far. As I still find deciding which 2 SA's to reveal on turn 1 (espically on the alrger maps) is one of my weak points and woudl love to see what otehr ppl do, but todo this you need to be able to see where all their ovther SA's are.

I agree. The replay module could be extended to give a lot more information. A "go to turn X phase Y" button and a statistics window on the end (like the one you get when you finish playing) would be really nice.

Problem with this is that to do this, the client needs to know where all the SAs are. If this program is built for secure multiplayer, the client will only know where its own SAs are.

I'm not so sure about seeing all the SAs... maybe have an option? I like to feel the same surprise as my opponent when an SA is sprung.

It would be good to see the info on a country (budget, guerillas and so on) when you bring the pointer onto it, as you can do in the game.

Well, we've been told we'll be able to rewind and fastforward later... unless it's MAN only.

I agree on the stats point. I want to view stats at the end, and be able to see city details during replay.

when replay is finished hit 'Esc' for Menu and select Statistics there.

I know it's not obvious...
