Influence table access

[dodd1]

Ive noticed on the Influence table that Cannons aid and Weapons aid are greyed out and unable to be selected. In the later scenarios they are not greyed out. Is this a technical problem or just the case that these types of influence can be purchased only later in the game.?

I believe that it is a case of those two items are not initially available.

Thanks Mark for your confirmation. Ive just realized that Cannon aid and Weapon aid become available a few months into 1776 in the pbem game Im currently playing. I had more than 10000 recruits but very few muskets with which to arm them.
