So I thought I would try an ironman game playing as Brandenburg. Made a solid start and saved the game after about 30 years of game time. Just went to resume it and it was so unclear to me how to do so that I ended up overwriting the save file and have now lost the game I was playing. I'm amazed that such a well-designed game does not make it more straightforward to resume a saved ironman game. Easy when you know how, no doubt, but not clear at all to a relative newbie like me. Boy, am I feeling pissed off right now!

Not too hard? And it warned you before overwriting.

As I said, easy when you know how. What is obvious about knowing that you have to click on the Cloud button to get to ironman saves? Some little indication of that would have been appreciated. There was indeed a warning about overwriting but then morons like me will do stupid things when frustrated.
