One simple change to improve AW Persistent Placement

Answer: Auto-placement of defenders on all 3 maps.
Work flow: Players select defenders and the default option is to auto-place them on the maps - maybe with an option to opt out by unchecking a box.
Long-term solution: Allow officers to pick and choose from players’ War Defenders menu. You know, finally give it a use.
Let’s all be honest here. Most players aren’t smart enough to figure out persist placement on their own. It took me almost 2 mins to figure it out myself BUT I literally have a genius IQ and I work for a (different) games studio, so I’m well-versed in game mechanics.
So, this is obviously not going to be intuitive enough for an average IQ person. Let’s set players up for success, rather than burn out officers with the task of re-training players. AW is a super fun game mode and persistent placement is a positive change, just needs a bit more QoL tuning. Thanks!
