deselect 'Free Player Setup' on the start menu to expose the difficulty setting.

The game is automatically saved in the current book at the end of every turn.
Each turn's save is available by adjusting the game date on the start menu.
(The buttons for this are on the right, near the bottom)
Note that if you restart from an earlier date, and save on close,

If the game screen appears unresponsive at start,

or clicking the empire management icon above the end turn button.

(The close button hides the dialogue window, it does not end the negotiation)

Military units must be designed. This option appears as a research choice after
Warrior Code has been researched. If you do not like the allocated name for a unit type,
you can change it by right clicking the unit in the Military Report window, [F2] key.
