If you open the military building, you have the information right there.
So I don't see your problem.
Why would you want to wait to collect your troops?You can't do that without being forced to collect any ready troops.
When you started all 3 military buildings in evening and in the morning you want to use the Brown Bear (IMO).Why would you want to wait to collect your troops?
To collect them after feeding brown bear(s) (reason - there is not enough pet food to keep brown bear(s) fed pernamently).Why would you want to wait to collect your troops?
That is wasteful.On my life account I just feed the brown bear, open the building I want the extra troops from and start using the time boosters and placing new troops.
And if I need some more troops from the other buildings as well I just switch to them and start yanking them out as well.
That way I know for sure I get a lot more units of the type I want.
All the extra troops I get after that round will be a bonus for me and not what I am aiming for.
