Thank you.

I bought this game on Steam and I have been looking all over for a manual. I contacted Wasteland Interactive and they told me Slitherine was responsible for the manual. So is there one? (Not the "preview" one which is useless)

You may know this already but:

When Hadrigal achieves an alliance with Ariselle, it is given the choice whether to turn westward or eastward. The buttons are turned around, i.e., if you select West you are given the eastward goal and vice versa.

After Alt-tabbing out of the game to attend to other matters, attempting to restore the game cause an unhandled exception for me which goes by too quickly to read and then my screen starts flashing uncontrollably. My only option at that point appears to be to bring up Task Manager and Shutdown.
