Newbie question--please answer

Whoops
When I said top 20 issues, I simply mis copied
"top 20 topics".
I am sorry I did not know that this really makes the difference for the devoted fan here.

When I wrote 'issue', it just meant the difficult situation for newbie..

Top 20 topics web page was really really helpful for me.

I have tried to look at newbie thread but it was very difficult for me to find exact situation I am facing.

When I post questions here I was really impressed by kind explanations from many veterans. I thank you for that.

I am now getting into the game

I usually play rpg and some light turn base game such as civilization

These days I am hooked with space empires IV and
Uncommon valor. Both are superb game!

BTW, I also tried to learn SE IV by looking at the printable manual for SE III since it is very thick and I assumed that SE IV and SE III are not that different. But in that printable manual there are many things missing for the newbie like me...

Again I appreciate all your help and ....
MAY I post another if I have any?

Sincerely
