チケットの詳細:

Action names in the UI can be a little confusing.
"Recycle Unit" - sounds like it might have to do with the environment, pollution etc. - is it connected to Recycling Center?
In addition, to recycle a human being (e.g. Warrior, Musketeer) might be a little cruel as a metaphor.
"You're Fired" - maybe intended as a joke, but it is politically charged unlike other text in the game, and doesn't fit grammatically.
Cruel and arrogant language may be especially appropriate where it concerns the enemy, but in this case it is about your own troops, so some more euphemistic term would make it sound more realistic.
Currently the client also has a Disband menu item, so it is three different terms for the same general idea.
My suggestion: for the action names, how about plain "Disband recovering production" and "Disband without recovering production"? It is dull and verbose, but so is the concept. Not introducing additional metaphors makes it easier to sensibly translate to other languages.
I think it would also be a good idea to group similar actions together in the UI, with similar wording and close-together locations in the menus. Currently in the "Go to and..." menu, "Recycle Unit" tends to be near the top, "You're Fired" near the bottom, and "Disband" is an entirely different menu.
