Status: offline 		Along the line of the Officers thread, although I think there won't be that many questions as it is much more simple.
Still I ran into a situation which wasn't clear to me at first, namely;

The Volunteer card.
An Officer lvl 10 gets a "Volunteer" card in where he can raise volunteers in the neighbourhood. Be advised as this Officer *has to be* in a city to make it work. I was puzzled at first because it says; "click on highlighted hex" ... been searching on the map for a few minutes, no highlighted hex to be seen.
Then it struck me, this HQ has to be in a city, damaged or not, to make this card work. Nice card though, good find Vic.

Don't know what I'm doing wrong but after I press "play card" no eligible hexes show up, no matter where I click. I even put the HQ in a city... no go.

I have the same problem, don´t know how to make it work. I call it the "useless card" , really bad luck if you get it.

Volunteers must be a town within range 5.

best,
Vic

Status: offline 		Oh? It's my experience that most cards are pretty much self explanatory, except maybe a few. But maybe you are right and there could a an additional popup or whatever describing the card in detail.. or more detailed anyways. Still some are just trial and error, just click on play and see what happens. (your commander gets killed in a car accident lol)
