The manual doesn't say nor does it explain all the tabs. Sloppy job!

Edit:

I found it but the manual could be much better.

Thank you! Another person who appreciates a comprehensive manual.

Oh, yeah. I mention manuals and docs in all my reviews. In fact, a review I just wrote got two points off for no docs. When I asked the devs about it, they said it was on their Facebook page! [8|]

I have been a big Frank Hunter fan going back to his more independent ADANAC years, so it pains me to say that the rulebook is severely lacking. So much of the manual is devoted to the under the hood calculations at the expense of explaining the simple nuts and bolts on how to play the game.

Yeah, it wouldn't take much. The manual has the earmarks of something written in late alpha or early beta.

Sorry guys, all my fault. Strange how one misses some seemingly obvious things.

Frank, my friend, it's all right; just get a PDF addendum out.

A couple of notes on things which I'm not sure made the manual. Some unit counters have an M designation and some have a C. I think the M troops are mountain and get bonuses in rugged terrain, Frank may have to verify and the C troops are commando type units, not sure what added bonuses they get.
Also when a counter shows the unit ID in red it means that unit will be withdrawn next turn. Be careful, its easy to waste resources on units that will soon leave the battle.

There are tool tips over all of the tabs at the top of the game in case one has questions.
