I'm reading through the tutorial and following along in-game.

There are five icons, a building, an anchor, a water drop, crossed pickaxes, and what looks like four little funky shaped x marks. Each one has an x# next to them, e.g. x13. What do these five icons mean, please?

There should be tooltips here! There should be tooltips everywhere!

Thanks!

Yeah agreed, I noticed the lack of tooltips here as well.

The icons are in order:

Cities, Ports, Oil, and Mines. All of these contribute to your MMPs every turn.

Thank you, Hubert. So, the crossed pickaxes are mines, and the four small x marks are fortresses?

It seems like maybe it's the other way around, according to the symbols. Four x marks represent a fortress?
