Boy, that's the truth.  I conquered Japan last night,
and it was pretty fun, even though the interface is in
such a primitive state.  I'm amazed to see how quickly
turns are carried out in SDL, and it seems like
there's all the functionality behind the scenes, is
that the case?  After playing around with Korea 2006,
I opened Specula (The -g does work), which I assumed
required a lot of hardware because it had 800 sides
and 4.2 million units, is playable and fun on a
laptop.

I know this is pretty low on the list.  But for when
it is feasible, even if it was simple tiling or just
selecting a color scheme, I think it'd add
immeasureably to the game.


Can you load saved games from the command-line?
