When you get all those windows popping up, just click on the "?" command with the right mouse button - all the windows go away! (You don't even need to be in "?" mode to use this feature!) In fact, there are a lot of "right mouse button" features that I did not know of until I re-read the manual! Now, I have a question: Is there anyway to leave men in a town? I know you can recruit them, but not drop them. Also, how do you get them to farm? I don't see any plowed fields appearing. How do you get the men to chase birds? Or even more importantly, kill an enemy carrier pigeon? I've made it 2 or three territories out in all directions, and now I'm stuck because the surrounding territories have around 100 bad guys all after you! (I'm only given 18 at the start of the round!) -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- David M.
