Thank you Ralegh. I found some of the interface confusing, although I have largely worked my way through it. I can only imagine the confusion of someone who never played the boardgame.

Thanks, Raleigh. I'm still having a problem with the land combat rules, but a walk through like that would be awesome.

Well I learned "not" to hit the white flag during the diplomancy phase. POOF........... Troops go bye, bye(home garrison). Guess I'll do some reading.

Actually that's pretty new-fangled. Back when I was a kid walking 20 miles to school in the snow and playing war games on my wood-burning Atari 800, rtfm before playing a game was the standard. And back then, the manual for a game like this would have been twice as big.

Your Atari ran on wood? Mine ran on wet woolen socks ...
