Um, that is news to me too. Got to agree with you about both the game and the
strategy book - they are great (the book is especially surprising as the manual
is very good too; often the book is a substitute for a decent manual). I think
Imp2 is one of my all time favourite 3 strategy games. The others would be
X-Com1 and JA2. Because of their RPG/tactical war aspects, the other two have
more flavour than Imp2 but for streamlined, nail-biting gameplay and challenge,
Imp2 is great.
