Possible Battle UI Layout

[✠Ikaroqx✠]

This may have already been noticed by lots of people, but I thought I'd show this because it's interesting. In the battle of Carthage video, between the transition from the birds eye view to the regular camera, at 5:06, you can see what appears to be what could be the battle UI layout. It seem CA may be going back to the central command console, instead of Shogun 2's command console on the left hand side.

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Possible Rome 2 battle UI

Also we can see that the map of Carthage appears to be colour coded. Places in the city held by the enemy (Carthage in this) are red, while places you control are yellow, and your allies blue. I suppose that when you capture more of the city the map will change to your colour.

Please excuse my cruddy paint skills . The centre circle will perhaps feature a portrait of the general like in Shogun 2, or perhaps the faction symbol, but otherwise it looks very much like ETW and NTW. I could be completely wrong though and this could simply be CA's thrown together UI so they can test the battles.

What do you guys think?

I think where you put faction symbol is wrong, I think that might be the tactical overview

Also there is something is the far left corner...

Nice Spotting !

I think the yellow little circle up left may be the time clock.

And the colored parts in the map could be caputre points colored by the faction owner.

FINALLY the map is at the lower end of the screen again. I hated the Shogun 2 layout.

map and UI was perfect in Rome TW, but i liked how it was in Shogun 2 TW.

Really that you found this, you almost don't see it.

Finally, its at the bottom of screen... i wish they move it to bottom left, its more practical, like in rome 1.....

I hope that Ca will make a better interface than shogun 2, with no stupid and unuseful 3d element (in this thread i showed that this can also bring performance drops LINK)

This is more likely; the centre console circle thing cutting the area in half was kind of stupid and I doubt CA would do that. Any ideas on what the centre button is? It's clearly intended to be very important, otherwise it wouldn't be in such a dominating position.

You've got nowhere to run CA. We're uncovering your diabolical plans bit by bit

I kind of like this new UI, the shogun one was... well a tad annoying.
