I've played with it and found the tile sets interesting, but for some reason I cannot place an object. Seems like a simple thing, I click object, choose the object (like player flag) and when I move to the map to place it I cannot seem to place it.

Am I missing something real simple. I've tried double clicking on the object name, dragging it, and sich. No success.

I had a terrible time placing objects as well. Its somthing that should have been covered a bit better in the walkthrough.

You have to press and hold the Shift key, and the unit will show up on the terrain and follow your cursor around. Then, click and release and the unit will be placed.

To rotate an object before placing it click and hold, then move your cursor left and right. Then release and the unit will be placed.
