@rogercooper How are you playing this map? It's crashing before it opens for me, and the error reporter says the problem was already logged, so it's no unique to me.

@mattbarnes referring to the Hearts of Iron / Awakening map that you recently reviewed.

@cernel i actually love move-buy-attack, sometimes, especially when im drinking, i buy the wrong units either by mistake or during movement phase my movements make my purchases-before movement phase stupid. but it never caught on and i hardly even ask to play that version anymore.
