Doing a little tinking however, I find that TEXT on markers on a owned board is NOT visible, but does become visible when on a 'neutral board'. That's really what I was concerned about for No Better Place to Die. I guess I should have asked a more direct question. That would also seem to be a solution for Flattop (just make some 'dummy counters' ) I think that is what I'll end up doing for the AM's in 3 DoG. One thing that really struck me in my tinkering was how easy it would be for the person creating the .gam file to cheat. All he'd have to do is create a "referee file" to view all the secret moves.
