    I'm sure that this won't do much to satisfy the strategy nerds, but I legitimately learned about important economic and geographic factors in WWII through this game. What I really appreciate is that it's not incidental learning, but I learned though the actual game mechanics and map setup. Very few games manage to do that, and I think this one should be commended for it.

    Game has stopped running, claiming there is no valid licence key. Re-installing has not fixed the problem. Steam is violating Australian Consumer law by refusing my refund request. Under Australian Law they are legally required to refund or remedy a product which is not fit for purpose, but have decided to break this law. I have contact my bank to do a charge-back and will file a complaint with the ACCC
