Just as it says.

A button in the 'armies' tab that moves ALL the units of a single type to/from a division with one click.
I've seen SC comment on it in global saying that the db-side code for it is practically ready,
so I really don't see why it's been four months since some of us started asking for it...

And as a side note: The Rankings search feature should be:
1) Empty without having to delete the text already in there
2) Able to recognize names without having to click on anything as long as they're written correctly.

Could really use that 'move all' button when organizing armies..

I also posted this during the week which I would probbably find more useful, however the codeing may be a little more difficult.

I was wondering if it would be possible to first assign commanders and units into a division then being able to move the division as a whole into an army. This would mean that re-assigning a division would take about 4 clicks (rather than 10, plus typing)

The "move all" would still require 10 clicks for a commander a basic unit type and an advanced unit type

I believe moving the division is what people have been requesting (at least it's what I want).  Move all should be a trivial thing to support because it doesn't even need anything special.  Heck, you could even just have the existing form fields pre-populated with the current count available and use the existing move button.

Hmm...

As far as the ranking thing goes, for the longest time I just assumed it was broken, as did almost everyone I know, until we figured out it was just peculiar.

Exactly what I was going for - the move all button would be beyond easy to add :)
AND it might be nice to get a "Total:" counter in the production tab.. Just to see how many troops you have queued up ;)

I would also love some changes to the military interface.  +1 to moving an entire division including commander from one army to another but also:

o  Next to each set of troops be able to move a specified number directly to an Army + division or to/from the unit pool.

let's say you currently have four different troop types (8 if you build advanced and basic units) and your army has four divisions.  To load the army you have to click the army, then click each division, then load each troop type (dealing with the interface closing the division each time you do something) in all about 17 clicks and a bunch of typing.

If you could look at the unit pool directly and then move troops from the pool to a specified army and division without having to open the army and division itself you would save a bunch of time.
