Also, oops, missed this part. There is zoom.

Unfortunately it requires mousewheel or some magic combination of your trackpad and pinch which, I just hate mobile and macs apparently. Key Z is to zoom-all.

I want to zoom in the other direction, because in the big maps the small numbers are difficult to read.
Oh, I think I get you. You mean the static HUD isn't doing anything for you zooming in the board. That's an oversight on my part, thanks for the report.

Edit: also, you should be able to zoom in on the tiles, but, you're possibly running into an untested edge case, of which there are tons. Mac and mobile is under-developed as I'm a firefox/desktop curmudgeon. As you and others have noted, there is some interface goofery, but otherwise a mousewheel should let you zoom in until you see a moire pattern on a crt.

I'm using Chrome on Windows. No mouse wheel. (I don't even have a mouse, just a touchpad.)
Gotcha. Thanks for taking the time to explain. I'll add some hotkeys (+/-) to initiate a zoom, but otherwise this is a result of my pure laziness.

Not that you can zoom like this now, but you can pan if you hold the ctrl key down and left - click + drag.
