Summary
Add colors to the background of units already in the initial box that gives you the choice to fight or cater.
Description
On the dialog box that gives option to fight or cater add the troop type icon or change the troop image background colour to signify troop type, ie light melee, heavy melee etc.
This would be a minor change that should be easy to implement but it would let players to instantly see how many different types they are against and of which types they are so they can decide whether to fight or cater without having to offer over each troop manually. At present you could get 4 different troop images which makes it look like it will be really difficult fight so you may decide to cater but if you actually hover over them you find they are only actually two troop types which are far easier to fight, having to hover over images to get troop types for what may be up to 8 troops, in 4 fights per province, for up to 6 rounds in dozens of provinces is unnecessarily time consuming when a simple type icon or colour change could let you see this information immediately.
You can get the troop type info currently by hovering over each icon but that is annoying when you are doing lots of battles, icons for troop types are already available so adding them to the images troop images shouldn't be difficult, each troop type icon also already has it own colour, so changing background colours to troop images would be an alternative, I imagine the colours being in the two empty triangular areas at the top of troop images rather than the entire background if adding a background colour rather than icon was preferred.
Motivation
It would make it easier to see for players who don't fight often, if this battle is worth fighting for them or not.
Possible downsides
Esthetics.
