				Monitor brightness TEST
	
			 
             
			
		
		
		
		I have a little test I'd like to run with you. I haven't asked this in ages 
 
Start the game and set up a rebel battle where both player 1 and 2 have the same nation. Set the battle controls to Human purchase and deploy for both sides and set the battle up to be one where player 2 is defending 
 
When the purchase screen for BOTH sides appears just press done. The deployment screen for the rebel side ( player 2 ) will appear first. Press human deploy. There won't be any troops to deploy but find the Rebel black Victory hex flag then zoom all the way in then out one ( that brings you to the default zoom level.) 
 
 
Do you see a diagonal line running from the top right corner to the bottom left corner of that Black Victory hex flag ? 
 
I need a dozen or so responses. I just need yes or no 
 
Thanks 
 
Don

		I'll let this run a bit longer because I want more than just three responses but now that I have four Yes's please indicate how distinct the bar looks on this scale.... 
 
1/ Very clear and distinct line 
 
2/ Noticeable but not sharply defined. 
  
3/ Barely noticeable. I have to look for it 
 
Then if you are a yes, please tell me what brightness setting you have your monitor set at. 
 
 
Thanks 
 
 
Don

		2/ Noticeable but not sharply defined. 
 
Brightness = 4 of 10 (a tad darker then default) 
Contrast = 6 of 10 (A tad higher then default)
