This is a new suggestion that only related peripherally to what we've been talking about over the last few days and was inspired by what Michael said:

Can you please add a section to each employee/escapee counter board to say how many employees there are in the current Zulag? AE did something similar and I much preferred knowing in advance if I'd missed anyone.
As I recall, AE didn't give a running tally on how many were left in each land. It was fine for the mines, where you only have to see that your 90 escapees matched the 90 Necrum workers, but after that you had to do subtraction in your head each time to see how many were left in, say, Slig Barracks, and then only if you're sure how many you had before you came.

Also the one-way tunnels were annoying. Every door had "Tunnel X No Return" but most lead only to more of the same tunnel. It was a nightmare tying to work out if the mudokon you had left was in the next part of the tunnel or if it was still around and that was the door that actually led to Tunnel X+1.
