Just coincidence that Axis roll = Axis Surprise points
Surprise points = your box (4 w/NAV = 5) + opponent roll - opponent surprise points (always 0 on Impulse of DOW)

Never seen this before any ideas?
You can ignore it.
Jesper has customized his map views to fit his 2 monitors. You do not have that customization file so the program just use the normal one instead. Should look just like normal for you.
A trick I learned when playing Ronnie several years ago, was to rename my SLY file to the same name as his. Then when I loaded the game it loaded my screen view and I did not need to switch it everytime I opened a game file.
If you all use the same SLY file name, everybody will get their own screen layout when loading the file no matter who saved it.

Pat, that's really slick and simple. I can't believe I haven't thought of that before. This will definitely save me a little of time and trouble with loading game files.
Thanks for the tip.
