I'm sorry DRG, I was wrong. I have tried doing the same thing and it works instead. I'm not sure if I missed the flag and thought I hit it, or that I'm so used to more modern software that I'm unused to seeing descriptive text at the 'top' of the screen, or that the flag just looked like decor to fill a large empty space for some reason. In any event it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me because as I've mentioned before I've played this sort of game since back in the Panzer Strike/Kampfgruppe days.
