I do not remember that in the wargames were links to the readme or manual. I'll play Unity of Command. Brilliant! Terrific fun and dynamic! But the same problem with tutorial. Even in the manual does not describe all. It's really annoying. I agree that the all wargames are expensive. I usually wait for a sale. But with this game, I want to support the developers. I'm really looking forward to their next project. http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2015/08/21/the-flare-path-a-roundhead-reflects/ (middle of the text).

Game is not bad as described author of the video. I don't have any technical problems with game, no bugs or lugs. I agree that best manual for game is a tutorial inside the game, but not all wargames has it too. Besides manual explains only the basics, in all strategy games you need to build your strategy by youself.

I enjoying this game for the same reason as the other strategy games - choises and consiquences. I making moves - blockades, attacks and every turn my enemy gives me good counterstand. It is not easy therefore it is interesting. And of course I like history period and warships.

I have played multiple turn based strategy games in the past, including ones that required the reading of a manual in order to play them. If all the information is available, I have no problem with that, and I am fully prepared to take a slower pace on the learning curve. However, it is not ok to provide no form of tutorial and no link, readme, or anything in the game that tells you were to start. If this is the case, even if the product is solid (which I also spoke about) it spoils the experience. Even after I figured everything out though, there simply is not enough here to come anywhere near justifying the price of this game.

Strange, but it seemed to me that you were opposed to the game immediately. You do not want to understand and read the manual. Wargame is not a real-time strategy. You can not just run the game and immediately understand everything. I agree that with the tutorials in the game real trouble. Thank you for the video. It seemed to me that you liked to play, but do not like the fact that nothing is clear with no manual and game experience.
