I am letting you know that it is way to easy to copy army builder cd.
You should look in to a way to stop that. I am seeing a lot of people
using it but they have pirate copies of the cd. I wonder just how many
copies are out there. I for one did copy mine so I would have a back up,
this I think is fine as it is a back up copy and not given to any one. I
back up most of the cd's I buy if they don't have a copy guard on them.
Something to think about.

Unfortunately, economies of scale work against me on this one. :-( If I was
doing a production run of 25,000 copies of AB, then the cost of adding in
the protection would be definitely worth it. However, with a production run
of much less each time, it's not a viable option - at least, based on the
information that I could uncover on the subject. If anyone has information
on techniques that are cost effective for smaller production runs, I'd love
to hear about it.

Thanks in advance,
Rob
