This is a pretty simple idea that might belong in the Minor Ideas Thread. But, I put it here, because I wasn't sure. I would think this would be an easy thing to implement.
Proposal
Include player level, rank, and character class in the mouse over box in the fort battle map. This would help people know what players are and are not going to make it into a battle.
Current Workaround
Right now in order to figure out if a spot on the map is occupied by someone who will be in the battle, you need to find the person on the map, then go to the recruiting page to find out if they are ranked. If you are not an officer with access to the recruiting page, you have to jump through quite a few more hoops.

This is a pretty simple idea, really. We already have a box the pops up with the list of players at a location. All we need to do is add the players level, character class, and rank.
Abuse Prevention
No abuse issues that I can think of.

Summary
In battles where there are more players than can fit into the battle, it is difficult to know what spots are filled with players that won't end up making it into battle. The end result is that there are often gaps where someone would have started if they had an easier way of knowing who was ranked in the battle. Providing this information makes it easier for people to get organized before a battle and have everyone line up in the desired location.
