Hi everybody,
I had those proposals for improve the Tock display:
Now, since I had more time, I have finally changed my mind and add an option to display both information.
I think most of you won't care much, but you will notice a new button to display that kind of info (on the bottom-right of the board). You can also change it throught your "Preferences" menu. Whatever the mean you choose, your new wish will be saved on further games until you eventually change your mind. This way you can keep the numberless standard experience if you prefer it.
Precisions:
Take care!

I had those proposals for improve the Tock display:
- Display pawn numeros: https://boardgamearena.com/forum/viewto ... 22&t=14152
- Display number on fields: https://boardgamearena.com/bug?id=13842

Precisions:
- The numbering of the field is 1 to 18 on each "color side", 18 being a starting field. This is the layout I have mostly found on the Tock boards I have seen. Thus, the field which is aligned to the home has number 16.
- The numeros on the pawns are defined by their starting order, and using Roman digit: the first pawn you put in play get the numero I, the second II and so on. A pawn which was never put in play has no defined number until it enter the main circuit. If a pawn is eaten, it keeps its numero. Thus it is consistent with the log message if you really want to keep in track which pawns are moving (obviously for that matter : 1st = I, 2nd = II and so on).
Take care!
