I'm an enthusiastic crafter of defensive equipment, and I'm rather enamored with elite divisions. Therefore, it has long frustrated me that the defensive totals found on Military > Overview only adjusts for the City Wall.

It would be nice to have four toggles on the Overview page, to enable/disable display of bonuses from the City Wall, crafted equipment, terrain, and commander formations. Perhaps prestige bonus as well.

I realize that the totals presented would only be accurate for the units stationed inside the city, including its particular terrain. However, we already accept that the City Wall is factored into the display. People understand that when they deploy their armies to the field, that the wall bonus no longer applies; I think the same could be said of the city's terrain and crafted item bonuses.

In fact, I occasionally have to break out a calculator to divide out the City Wall, then multiply in the equipment and formation, so I know what an army will look like in the field. Very clunky.

Perhaps the terrain bonus is meant to be hidden, but I think Innoble let that cat out of the bag a long time ago. If we are going to have a defense summary display that presents an exact number, then in my personal opinion, that number should be accurate.
