I don't think people really notice the battle view

Its a shame really. (Then again whe you're attacking so often every turn cos the AI sucks so badly, the view can get annoying)

If I am right AIs doesn't ever retire from battles. Battlevieew enables this possibility to human player. Why should human player retire if AIs can't do that?

So now humans are not retiring... Why should we then have the battleview? It only visualises very poorly your battle. You would maybe like to watch it few times but then you have seen all you have to see. Poor, could I use word ugly, graphical presentation of the battle. That should be removed totally.

I think it is possibile to remove retiring button.

P.S
Has anobody ever attacked AI's ocean cities?
Battleview looks ugly without this fix. (ugly mix of polar and ocean)

Correction:
AI's don't have ocen cities (AI is stupid, or destroyed before that)

Ahh thanks

But actually I have had only 5-10 hours per week time to play with computer. Now I am considering to change my work so that generates a lot of other things to think.

But thanks anyway
