militaryu mobilization anyone?

One feature i would like to see is mobilization and demobbing options. Im sure the older folks amoung you remeber call to power 2 where this feature existed.

The feature allowed you to have the armed forces say at 25% strength in peace time and then tensions rose you could moblize more and more troops. For example you would have divsions at 25% capacity in peace and when it all kicked off your moblized them to 100% , but this took time of course.

It was a nice feature that exerted a real cost on your economy and limited over stacking, something in my opinion was civ 4's biggest single flaw.

There's already a thread with this exact request/suggestion. You didn't really explain it's benefit though, if I remember from the other thread correctly your unit upkeep was cheaper when it's at 25% than it is at 100%, making it worth having larger armies or portions at 25%. With new things to spend gold on (hopefully a lot) it would be nice to do this, to save a little cash. I really wouldn't mind either way to be honest though.

Mobilization is discussed at length in this thread about army costs and readiness.
