Both reviewers of Game of Thrones: War for Westeros asked for the same thing: bird's eye view. Beyond All Reason provides exactly that. I think 0 A.D. should too, together with keeping sizes as realistic as possible (that is, do not shrink ships like AoE and others). All those things should work well hand in hand.

You mean like top-down/cenital view? There is a hotkey for that already. Called "Toggle Bird's Eye View". Shift+Tab by default

No, that's a vertical view, I mean a zoomed out view (without using the Developer Overlay, or having any unexpected issues). I think the reviewers called that a bird's eye view, when asking for zooming out to have a better view of everything.

Ahh, right. In the next release, thanks to PR #8447 adding camera configuration options, including the maximum zoom, combined with the current Bird’s Eye option, I think you’ll have that covered.
