I was toying with a similar idea to this to bring up:
(to quote Lanover...),
"If I could chosse a different group-icon for different maps. This way, I could have the group represented as a group in one setting and as a spaceship in another setting. Perfect would be a scriptable setting for this, allowing different ships and symbols according to what the crew chose or found..."
I had the idea of using different icons for armies instead of characters. (Battlesystem rules, anyone???) I recently re-read the FR (Same FR in FRUA) novels, The Horselords trilogy. I was wondering how difficult it would be to (maybe use logic block) change your character icons to "army icons" and have the database have "army" weapons that instead of taking away hit points it took away soldiers (just to throw out an example: an army of cavalry attacks an army of infantry and does 1d8 casualties to said army).
This would open up some strategy warfare gaming, hopefully without having to change the program much...
