<t> I played a few turns last night to get a handle on the interface. I think I'd like to play a bit of a skewed difficulty for the first campaign I go through. My intuition would be that the best way to do this (aside from the AI debuffs) would be to play Germany in the Triple Alliance, and switch ...

<t> I own TOAW3 but I never got very far into it because the interface was just a bit of an overload and I wasn't sure what needed to be paid attention to and when.
