Sorry, to clarify, yes indeed I was talking about cloning pieces (cards used as
counters, specifically) in the module editor. In my case in question I had to
duplicate a particular infantry unit 19 times and resorted to copying it once,
then right-click / paste - ing it 19 times and wondering if there was a quicker
way. An option on the rightclick menu to "clone" which would then prompt for
the number of desired copies would be awesome.
