Thanks for the good words guys This is a great forum and much of what I know about this game was learnt right here over the course of 2 days. I was going to see what was the reception of this first part before continuing any further. Your encouragement was encouraging -- my fiance's reaction was somewhat different. She rolled her eyes as if trying to say: you are too old for this

I am continuing writing this morning, but before I transfer it to the forum I need to figure out two issues:

1. How to insert the screenshots.

2. How to keep some decent formatting to at least somewhat match the Word file.

I will also try saving my battles, although I feel expert players will die laughing at my inept tactical dancing.
