Report history
Can you explain this suggestion more fully? What do you already see? What would you like to see that's different?
When a meeple is placed on the board through a card (such as Smuggler or Explorer), it is then defined as an "assistant".
This report is about showing the number of "assistants" specifically, not just "figures".

The player box shows the figure supply for the player (in this case, 1/3).
But it does not show the number of Assistants Placed, which is a measure for Career goals, the Innkeeper action, a Prestige card, and one of the City actions.
Having to scroll down and count assistants manually is pretty tiresome.
(Meanwhile, "cards in hand" is displayed, and is pretty much useless info.)
> (Meanwhile, "cards in hand" is displayed, and is pretty much useless info.)
Unless you're interested in how many cards your opponents have, which is pretty common. The player panel presents a consistent message for all players, so it's there for you and your opponents. I disagree that the information is useless, though in the interest of finding common ground we can perhaps agree that the information isn't useful *for you* even if it is useful for others.
Reopening for votes.
Players will always have a full hand unless it's the middle of their turn. Which strongly limits how useful it can be.
Regardless, number of Assistants is a relevant quantity for a wide variety of game mechanics.
Because this suggestion has been open for 3 months without receiving any player votes, we're closing it out and focusing our efforts elsewhere.
