KY joins CSA - Who knew?!

Just looked at the political screen and saw that KY joined the CSA in my current game (2 turns after it happened). In looking back through the text messages I can't find any notification of that. Is there an automatic message I missed? If not there certainly should be one when this happens. Seems like it would have been in all the papers. [:D]

Same thing happened to me.  Thought it would be big news, but apparently it was buried on p.4 somewhere [;)]

Sounds like we need a message for this, and that it should also post to the 'e' key report. I'll add it to our patch list.

Thanks Joel. It would be helpful to have a message.

Joe,
Not to change the subject but I was wondering if it is possible for an icon or some such thing that tells you the phase as I am an old guy and have a hard time remembering which is the reaction and which is movement. Also I read on page 88 that reaction movement happens when BOTH sides have combat units in the same region. Isn't it a case where a player ends his turn with a unit (s) in the others home (state area).

There is an icon showing the phase in the upper left corner of the screen (near the date).

Whenever a player starts his turn and there are enemy ground units in areas that the now phasing player controls, you'll have a reaction phase and have a chance to react before the combat.

Gary says he's added a message about Kentucky so it'll be in the first patch.
