When I view some recorded games, I find it really annoying how I can only keep track of the production, reserach, etc. of one player. It makes it very difficult to compare the two players (except roughly by the score), let alone 4v4's. I suggest that for AoM, recorded games should allow you to choose to view the game as one of the players OR in an omniscient view. This will let you see all the area on the map that has been explored/is visible to all the players collectively (but NOT the entire map unless you specify it). You can see what everybody is producing, researching, etc. This will make it much easier to compare and follow players and allow you to see the strategy of all the players simultaneously. Also, although ten to one it won't be included in AoM, I would love to be able to zoom in and out on the map so that I can see the entire map (or a large portion of it) at one time (a bird's-eye view).
Not all old men in ragged coats are bad old men; some are bone-and-bottle men, and have little dogs of their own, some are gardeners, and a few, a very few, are wizards prowling around on a holiday looking for something to do.
