Creating formations & saving them outside of battles would be a big one for me. Just let my armies load up how I'm going to deploy them anyway.

Simply put: all calls for non-violence in politics needs to start from the top down and be practiced as part of our foreign policy. It's gross that we have it's a political ecosystem where elected politicians can openly call for the death of foreign leaders and civilians, but act shocked that Americans would apply the same logic domestically.

Trump wants to flood Iran with guns so that the citizens can kill the elected leaders? So where's the line for advocating for that course of action that makes it appalling for Americans to exercise the same? You can't have it both ways. You can't say that it's not part of the democratic tradition to resort to violence while encouraging other people to resort to violence to bring about democracy. Either violence is a core component of democracy or it isn't.

And when the violence in democracy is coming from the top down, then you also can't stand up there and tell us that violence isn't a part of democracy. Trump has killed an unknown amount of civilians by claiming they're "guilty" of a crime in another country. If one of those civilians comes back and tries to get his revenge, how are we supposed to say that what they did is wrong? If you try to kill me w/o any recourse on my part, then how is it wrong for me to do the same? Is that not self-defense?

At the end of the day, we're telling the world that we have two standards of justice: justice the leaves the powerless at the mercy of the powerful and justice that protects the powerful from taking power into their own hands.
