I find that I use Andy in long difficult missions to hold a possition while I manage some other troops. Since Andy has a mind of his own he can drift and wander away from where I want him and get killed. I'd like to see an "Andy Meter" at the top of the screen. Just a bar that shows his life. It would be nice if it flashed on yellow, and when tapped if it would take you to Andy and select him for speedy extrication.

I'd also like to see the ability to lock Andy and other armies to a certain location. It's better to place a group in front of a bottle neck and have many shooting the one that comes through than the other way arround. It seems that armies drift into these positions and get into a situation where they are going through one at a time.

Here! Here! for groupings!

The problem would be for user-authored missions that contain more then one ANDY. Then it would get very confusing.

Instead of an "Andy Meter", I think it would be better to have the computer tell you something like "group one under attack" (assuming group one is Andy). It would work out that way, but first WI needs to make the game able to assign groups.
