Wish we had windowed mode.

From the first clash at Manassas to the epic confrontation between Lee and Grant, the Brother Against Brother series will bring new levels of historical detail and realism to the battles of the Civil War. This regimental-level game, created by the developers of the award-winning Forge of Freedom, builds on that game’s acclaimed tactical engine, adding scrupulously researched orders of battle, high-quality map graphics, command and control rules reflecting the numerous challenges faced by army commanders, and plenty other features. Beginning with The Drawing of The Sword – which recreates the pivotal opening battles at Manassas , Wilson ’s Creek, Mill Springs and Williamsburg – Brother Against Brother lets you refight the Civil War from start to finish.

So I could have the digital manual open and could refer to it while playing. If it is available, my apologies. I cant find it.

very last reply before i drive off on hols, if you have a pc or tablet as well, use that for reference, if not then have it open and alt tab between game and manual, just use it for reference when it's your move and not while the AI is thinking, as that sometimes causes some problems while for others it doesn't, this way you can have your cake and eat it, now can't wait for a reply but others will chip in i bet, good luck and see everyone in a weeks time when i'm back off hols[:D][;)]

good luck and thanks for buying, hope you all enjoy playing it, as i have it with me also[&o][&o][&o]

The game actually is running as a window, it's just a full screen window. Alt-tabbing to the manual and back works fine for me here, can you give us some more detail on the issue you are having?
