Only if France once more exists can it be given those hexes.<br/> <br/> Now I am not a rules Grognard for WIF, but reading the RAW as Urvile ...

RE: Advice on Japanese Strategy

Yep. When I saw oil from that area I immediatly thought the persian Gambit with Japan and just ignored what was really written. As for this Saudi Arabia idea, I dunno about it being a good one. 1 oil is nic for certain but not if you let the Chicoms off the hook I would think

RE: Advice on Japanese Strategy

RE: Need multiple copies?

By ask someone at Matrix by that I mean ask if such a thing violates the licensing terms. I would look myself but such things make my head explode when I read them and today is Valentines day so my wife would appreciate no head exploded Mikey!

I would agree some sort of detailed DRM analysis pop up would be nice. A single button "Show Detailed DRM" that then pops up an informational only form detailing all the DRM's and how much they are
