Report Request from CotD

Ok! Forgive me if I missed something when I read through the manual but something just happened in my game that I wasn't expecting.

Turn 5, everything ran through as normal and then just as the turn was coming to an end this Report Box popped up.

It seems to be expecting me to type something into it, judging by the flashing cursor but I have no idea why or what.

Any idea's?

[&:]Right!

I think I've worked out what its about. When I clicked on the next button it told me that Cham had been captured by the Austrian's. Still puzzled why its offerring me the change to type into it though.

Have you typed something into it and seen if it was saved?.....I noticed the flashing cursor on other screens as well, so I wonder if it's just a glitch in the program which neither aids or hinders the game...

Of course. How could I resist that?[:'(]

I typed a load of gibberish into it and pressed Next to see what happened. Thats when I discovered the report about Cham being captured. It doesn't seem to have done anything else.

My take on this screen is that it was just there to let you know how many reports would follow.

I left the memo "active (cursor)" by accident. Nothing you type is saved.

Doh! And there was I thinking that if only I could type in the correct secret code word all the Imperial Guard would be issued with AK47's.[:D]
