Summary	0013023: Add ship role description text in-game
Description	We're all new players trying to learn the ships right now. The sentence or two on the combat setup screen which describes the role of each ship is really helpful, but it's not accessible in-game AFAICT. So it should go in the hover text which appears when you hover the mouse over a ship. You should also make it appear when you hover the mouse over the squadron icons at the bottom, which allows you to access the text in-game for ship types that aren't currently on the battlefield which you might deploy in the future.

Chris_McElligottPark Jan 31, 2014 6:43 pm administrator ~0034787	Thanks! * A more detailed role description text with some extra key information is now included in the tooltip information on hovering over ships in combat. The raw statistics of lesser importance have been removed from the tooltip, as it is not actionable information during battles in terms of how you use things tactically.
