I wish that when a squaddie or a countryman transmitted on vox from a GV, that there was an icon showing their location as there is with aircraft :old:

When someone talks on VOX, don't they highlight on the map? I thought they used to...

Maybe a little crosshair would be nice since they don't have dots a huge box on the map wouldn't seem right.

I think maybe a small triangle icon, most armoured units use a triangle. It could be half the size of the current vox square

Thinking about it, this should not apply to Wirbs / Osti's / M16's :old:

If I had a gun with 3 bullets and I was locked in a room with Bin Laden, Hitler, Saddam and Zipp...  I would shoot Zipp 3 times.

+1 and absolutely include Wirbs.   Dragging a single con over a buddy's Wirb might be lame, but dragging a conga line over them is just good fun.
