Game Manual in HTML Format ??????

[Commander G]

I'm surprised Shrapnel will not encourage distribution of the full manual so that people can better evaluate whether or not they want to buy the game. I thought they were enforcing ownership by scanning the CD, but I suppose people can make an image copy and pirate that way. I was really surprised when I installed from the CD that I did not have to enter a license number to validate the game. In Stars players who share license numbers can never be in the same game because the game will trash their empires if two players submit turns with the same license number.
