Can't see all troops and tactics when attacking

I noticed my Blitzkreig and a regular tactic weren't showing up in the launch bar when attacking a competitor.
When I returned back to my base, I confirmed they were there and active.
So, I decided to count the various unique entities that show under my "Current Army" when I go to a barracks or the academy, and then compare that to how many appear on the launcher bar when doing an attack.
Showing under "Current Army", I have 36 unique tiles, including troops, tactics, merc army indicator, alliance army indicator, and other armies from either events, expeditions, or purchases.
But when doing an attack (tried both multiplayer and the single campaign), and it only shows 32 tiles at the bottom of the screen.
With the first being the Rally icon, this means 31 are my army entities, thus meaning that 5 of my army tiles are unavailable during attack.
Since tiles are not removed when you use all of a specific tile (which I think they should just to prevent scrolling) but are rather just greyed out, this means those missing 5 tiles will never become available.
The only way I can see to keep from losing out, is to limit myself to less diverse troops and/or tactics, to get down to that 31 number.
ie., Instead of having a Protect, a Betrayl, and a First Aid, use 3 Protects, since they will be grouped together on 1 tile.
Obviously not an ideal solution.
I don't know if this is a known issue that is already be worked on, or if there is any other work around in the mean time, but I would like to hear if this will be fixed, and if anyone has any other ideas, aside from using a less diverse set to get below the current threshold.
Thanks.

I'm having the exact same issue and have contacted CS for assistance. However, their reply does no help in solving the issue nor did they provide any alternatives.

Interesting... This is something I have yet to encounter but I have been collecting event armies so it might affect me sooner than later. Good to know in any event.
Sounds like all the more reason for customizable deployment bars!

There appears to be a limit of 30 icons in the battle scroll bar. So whatever combination of troops, generals, card armies, and tactics you have, if it exceeds 30, you won't see the ones at the end. And quite often, that ends up hiding one or more of your tactics :( This should be a very simple fix, since the 30 limit seems arbitrary. But a better solution would be a division of the menu, at least to separate the tactics and keep them at the ready (instead of a bunch of giant swipes away). It would also be nice if we could transfer some these bonus armies into our inventory.
