Sometimes the deploy button stays lit up as well when there's is nothing to deploy.

When Iraq is attacked 3 lanes open up until it surrenders. Africa, South Atlantic and Med. Normally this is for 1 turn.

ALSO if Italy captures Vichy NA they will get 1 resource and that will use a convoy lane in the Med

Italy doesn't have any convoys in 39, that was my point. It's just annoys the f***out of me for some reason that the button stays on indicating something requires my attention when it doesn't.

Status: offline 		Weird...I just tested and my button does not highlight.

At least on one game. I do get a highlight every so often and can not figure out why.

Though there are times I wish different buttons would highlight because I forget to check things.

Status: offline 		Italy can never assign their escorts unless they capture Vichey France, Africa or Iraq is on their side...so I guess it will pop up always.

I have had my Unit one pop up and no units are to deploy. Normally it will go away after one tur.

I have had my Advancement one pop up multiple times a game yet there are no new points to add and nothing advanced.

Does not bother me too much...so I don't worry about it.

And I like that the Advancement one does from time to time because I forget to check it.
