Summary0005466: Wave warning misleading on ship counts
DescriptionWave warnings are double-counting starships in their total size in the wave warning message. So if it says "90 Bombers, 2 Starships" what is actually coming is 88 Bombers and 2 Starships.

I'd also like to suggest moving the AI number over to the Mark number. This will server two purposes: 1) make the whole thing read better, 2) disassociate the Mark level from the Starships since they may not actually be that mark level at all. So a wave warning would look as follows:

BEFORE:
90 AI 1 Bombers, 2 Starships (II) to Earth in 01:50

AFTER:
88 Bombers, 2 Starships (AI 1-II) to Earth in 01:50

I'd prefer (AI 1, II)... Or actually change the AI names to AI-1 and AI-2.

Except you don't always know the AI names if you used Random and didn't enable "Reveal AI Types".
