I go into the Tactics section and I want to access Help area but it is locked. Why on earth would the Help area be locked? p.s. I finished the tutorial missions.

really!? Can you post us a screenshot of what it looks like? I go to the game, tap "Play Tactics", and press "Help" on the right... it's there...
Have you finished all the missions in Story Mode? (Not that I think that should be a prerequisite for accessing help files...)
Anyone else have the same problem?

I just tried, I have no problems opening it. Is the help section completely locked throughout the menus or just within the tactics menu? As long as you can enter it somewhere else its not really a problem as its just the same.

i only know how to get to the Help menu by tapping the 'Play Tactics' icon. Then when I get into the Tactics area only 'Story Mode' isnunlocked. 'Versus Mode', 'Sequence Manager', & 'Help' are all locked.

I'll post a screenshot as soon as I get on my mac upstairs in 10 minutes after I finish dinner. On my iPad right now.

Hmmm, well the help sections the same throughout so as long as you can access it somewhere else it's no problem, the rest must be slightly annoying I know you said you have completed single player, that doesn't effect it though as I was playing in vs before I finished the story. So it's not story mode, it's not your level , I'm just going to have a look again, sorry I can't be of more help.

I think it must really be the tutorial - I do recall that the more "advanced" options are locked until I get up to a certain point in the tutorial... Did you miss something? There are 3 starting missions, then the line that joins the cities go off the screen to the right and there are more missions. I don't know how much of it is needed to be completed before being able to play the rest... Wait, there *was* one update to the app, are you sure your app's been updated? Maybe it's locked for previous versions. Hope that helps

You have to leave Spain I think. Once in Italy, you should have it unlocked. Not sure.

I got the update. But I finished the 1st 3 tutorial missions. But I didn't look at the Help icon after finishing the 3 tutorial missions so I don't know if it was unlocked or not. But the thing is I went back to do the 2nd tutorial mission for review and that seemed to reset everything back to that point because I can't select the 3rd tutorial mission.
Now I'm trying to finish the 2nd & 3rd tutorial missions to get back to the point where I was before reviewing. Then maybe the Help icon will be unlocked. I'll let you know.
Thanks for the help.

That was it. I finished the 3rd tutorial and now everything is unlocked. Moral of the story is not to go back and review the tutorial missions because that will lock everything until you finish the 3 tutorial missions again.

Yeah, thanks for update.
I can figure out the reasoning behind it. The devs do not want new players to be confused with too much jargon and prefer to steer new players through the tutorials first.
That said, Welcome! I hope you'll grow to like the game as much as we do!

I think this qualifies as a bug

I'm pretty much hooked on the game already. Never have I spent so much time on a game that I didn't immediately understand. I've been looking for the perfect game for me (I must have about 100), a game that'll keep me involved for years and one that I'll set out to master while at the same time being impossible to master.
I may have found it.

Was just trying to play a Versus Mode game with auto-matching in Game Center and the game crashed twice.
