I didn't know the manual is there either. I just d'loaded the game though. I'll be looking at now

Thanks for the replies I'm just swimming around with all the possibilities of this game. I felt a little crushed however when I realised you can't have a separate research on a different planet. I've recovered from that now though and know you can't have everything in life

Thanks a lot for clarification. I was wondering why it displayed the combat viewer at times.

I purchased the game on friday and played it over the weekend. I'm enjoying it a lot. Just playing it on beginner just to get a feel of the game. Which leads me to the embarrassing question i'm about to ask... How do I activate the combat viewer during a battle? Is there a key I press? It's displayed the battles sometimes but I can't seem to display it all the time. At

Thanks Citizen for your initial experiences with the game. Interesting I only just installed the game last night. Didn't get a chance to play it though. Hopefully have some time at the weekend. Can't wait to play it. I've read the beginners guide etc so i'll be starting at the lowest difficulty just to get started.
