Issues with V2.2 #148

Hi Toby, yesterday I tried Rollig Stocks v2.2 for the first time with other beginners. Our experience was a bit crippled by the following issues:

  1. the star value of each company is not shown anywhere. It should probably appear next to their income.
  2. unless in the IPO phase, there is no way to see what are the powers of corporations once they are formed.
  3. the price cards are not visible: this means it's really hard to predict what is the effect of issuing shares or what are the implications when the stock price rises or falls. With the physical game I just need to inspect the other price cards, but in the website version this is not possible.
  4. There is no reminder of what is the cost of ownerships assoicated to each company colors.

After playing I am pretty sure that v2.2 is Rolling Stock Stars... but it would be helpful to put a note regarding that :) So people that just got the physical version like me know what version to pick.

Overall thanks for the implementation and for your work!
