I've wondered this too. It's why I avoid positioning expensive equipment (artillery, armor, etc...) in restless cities.

I've always struggled to understand the value of steam and so I play the SE direct from Matrix/Slitherine.

In general, for games that are properly "integrated" with steam, what does it add to the player experience besides being a one-stop-shop retail outlet?

The e-book there is v1.25. JeanleChauve is asking for v1.27 manual. I've never heard of anything later than v1.25 but I just missed a manual update.
