Display: Rotate Map

RE: Display: Rotate Map
These games are natural descendants of games like Chess, would it ever occur to you to play a game of Chess from left to right, or where you didn't sit "behind" your pieces and move them "up" toward the enemy king?
I'm an old paper (or "manual") game grognard, I can tell you the first order of business was always to arrange for players to sit across the table from their foes, "behind" their units. Then we'd set up our little nests, with rules, offboard displays and player aids to hand, perhaps a little drinky-doodle or a snack; and once this was done these positions were inviolable. To this day I'm out of my element if I can't rotate the map to conform to this pavlovian expectation.....
