Wow. Makes me glad that this is my first ootp game. No preconceptions.

So far all I've had time to do is read the manual a couple times, put logos etc in folders, and fool around with how to set up a game. At this time I find the interface just fine. Might change my mind later but from the manual it looks like it'll be ok.

Some of the comments on this forum just aren't accurate. One said that you can't sim the rest of a game in progress. That worried me. What did I get into? What if I play two innings and have to leave? Then I looked it up and found that statement just plain false. Now I take all the negative stuff with a grain of salt.

Today I expect to set up a league and start playing. I expect to have mostly positive comments and maybe some "suggestions."

And I'm not some sort of fanboy, just realistic. Been playing war and strategy games for a long time. This game, with the manual and guide, really isn't all that complicated.
