TEXTUAL RECORD KEEPING

From JOHN 3/8/89: Perhaps a textual record of the battle could be generated in addition to an animated set of maps. The computer could automatically generate a journal of a few terse sentences from day to day. You could then add to this journal as you saw fit. Let player record personal memos (notes to himself about future production schedules, situation summaries between sessions, long range planning, etc.) Notes could be time or event triggered.
