With recon vehicles and after an overrun I'm often mistaken how much movement is left. Is it possible to view the available movements points somewhere?

+1 to this. We have HP and ammo gages. Is it possible to get a movement point gage anywhere? Particularly on any unit with the "Phased Movement" trait. Replacing the dots with the movement cost in 'movement points' would be nice, as would a tutorial on the movement costs for different "movement types" - e.g., mechanized, motorized, on foot, etc.

Also helps to figure out when a unit has run out of MP to retreat with, because that is extremely important for purposes of surrender.
One idea we kicked around in BETA was to have the 'can move' not be a binary system. Instead of 'yes green' or 'no not lit' it would be like a fuel gauge. It exists as full, 75%, 50%, 25%, or empty. Reflecting remaining movement points left on a unit.

I spend a lot of time counting movement points in my head as well. This would be very nice. Just a number showing the amount left would be helpful on my olde brain.
