The problem I have while playing a General is that I do not know when my troops or low health or dead. The only way to discern this is attempt to summon more and see if the Idol's will let me. If possible, creating a mini picture window with health bar in one of the corners of the screen for each troop summoned may be handy. Furthermore, if these windows actually selected said units, it would be even handier. The best analogy I can think of is a Raid window in the game World of Warcraft.
The main selling points of Generals was original your summoning and controlling of army units. Which I find it quite perculiar that it would be made so difficult to track and monitor your units in the games current state. I know you guys are still in the early stages of this game and such but it would be a nice idea. It may help to increase the popularity of said Generals if they had increased control and functionality.
Another sub-idea to tack onto this is added control over troop abilities. Right now Monk(and whever their upgraded incarnations are) Idols can heal you or your allies. Leaving that auto heal function still on but providing a targetting method for who you want them to heal may be more beneficial. I've had a good number of fights where one Demigod is being damaged and the two Monks are choosing to not heal anyone. Then I've had battles where they heal your Demigod non-stop.
