Crappy blurb

Could we fix the blurb for MWIF in the game threads?
"World in Flames is the computer version of Australian Design Group classic board game. World In Flames is a highly detailed game covering the both Europe and Pacific Theaters of Operations during World War II. If you want grand strategy this game is for you."
Can I suggest an apostrophe "s" on the end of "Group"? And while I enjoy playing "the both Europe and Pacific Theatres of Operations", it should probably be "both the European and Pacific theatres of operations" (Note: no capitals in the last bit). Maybe a comma after "strategy" too, for a short pause to build the tension. [:'(]
It currently sounds like a Chinese instruction manual and is hardly going to help attract intelligent browsers who might be interested in the game but don't know WiF.
Cheers, Neilster

Neilster's original post turns up fine on my browser.
Not that I have any idea what it means, of course.

Up-to-date screen shots have been posted on the Matrix web site for WMIF. I will try to get them to remove the 2 screen shots from last year.

Looks good. It's a pity Matrix's screen shots are so small.

I have a minor correction to one of the screenshots (Germany declares war on Belgium - 1940).
I the sea box, a german sub is shown in the '3' box, but as it only has a movment of 3 it should only be able to reach the '2' box.
AOK
