Would be nice to have the total resources you used to build your current army in the army overview screen. Make it simpler at a glance to see how much resources you need to recoup in an attack to break even. Could also be used to make resource specific armies...like a 100k elixir army...or a 50k elixir 2k DE army etc etc. People may start posting threads about what the most efficient army builds are etc.
my 2 cents.
i like the idea alot, and i believe it also includes the cost of spells. but it needs two boxes:
1. for the troops already prepared, without counting the troops still cooking
2. the overall cost, including troops still cooking
1. this will help to avoid the necessity of deleting troops queued up in barracks just to see how much the real camp costs (especially when it is already full and ready for use)
2. this is help avoid having to wait for troops to be ready before seeing how much the army costs
i believe it will be a nice idea in helping decide if to attack a base or not (based on whether it is gain, loss, or acceptable loss based on complements from other resources and league bonus)
I just do this manually using my brain and rough estimates, or the trusty calculator does the exact cost nicely, takes like a minute to do.
I like the idea ! I Don't always have my calculator on me, and I don't always have the time or the mood to do it manually so I think i would be a good idea.
