In addition to the armies in cup number, there should be an armies in tower column. Currently, you can figure this out by counting the armies on the board, in the cup and in supply. Since the information is readily available but takes time to calculate, it should be provided to players as a time saver.

I don't agree that there should be a tally of what is in the tower at all times. I do however feel that all players should be told what comes out of the tower after anything is put in the tower.

That would be after the seeding and for each battle. If you put 7 in at seeding and you know that 4 feel out to the cup, you could keep track from there.

We need to know seeding results and battle results for all colors. You really aren't playing Wallenstein if you don't have this information. You are playing a different game with the bits from Wallenstein.

This goes to the question addressed in another topic here. Why do you want to make people track this information by hand? Computers count, and they do it well. Why not use them? The information isn't secret and it can be tallied by players and calculated.

What reason is there for not having the computer provide this service?

Why should players be forced to go through the game log, write down numbers, add and subtract them, and so forth? We let the computer count our scores, why not let it count the armies?

I see what you're saying now. I agree, let everyone know what's in the tower.

Gate towers have been used to abuse all kinds of events in the game. ...
