    WC Armada -ish strategy game ;)

    Aaah! You destroyed me!!! ;) Well I'm looking into it as we speak. I could allow that IF the player has the target system on his map (using prescience or scouts) AND he bribes the spacing guild with a large quantity of spice. -yes, that's a nice idea!

    WC Armada -ish strategy game ;)

    Armada Manual as PDF?

    Help! A long time ago I bought WCA for $10, that was a CD version (CD-install too btw, no "8 floppy" stuff!) and had the manual in all different languages on it - AS PDF. I lost the CD some time ago, now I can't find the PDF manual anywhere. Well I found the damn e-book version alright, but...
