Don't know about everyone else, but I'm not quite into this whole "Bob" thing. Old greasemonkey told me what I need to know, how I need to know it. This Bob seems to write all over my games with its magic blue pen, and I have only the slightest idea how to use it, much less, how it helps me at all.

I haven't tried BOB, I have the older version, and it's fine, but what's so good about BOB?

Well, old GM wouldn't give you all the stats for bonuses and such, and it didn't have a text map (which is invaluable in AoM or Siege, or other maps with obscrure bonuses).

Boxed territories are not "Safe" - i.e. they are bordered by one or more of your enemies...

Bracketed Territores are "Safe" - i.e. they are not bordered by any enemies... of course they could be bordered by your territory that has a 1 in which is bordered by an enemy territory that has 50 in!!!
