 lgeneral for Debian
 -------------------
 
+How to play a game
+==================
+
+In order to play a game you need to go the menu (right-click) and select one of
+the free WWI scenarios (S). You can also play the original Panzer General
+campaign (open the menu, click on C and choose PG), but only if you own a copy
+of that game yourself. Debian is not allowed to distribute those data files.
+Without them the original campaign won't start and nothing will happen when you
+click on PG. However you can easily create a Debian package for the Panzer
+General campaign by using game-data-packager. See the Panzer General section
+for more information. Please also read README.lgeneral for further instructions
+on how to play the game.
+
+Werner Archan's PG FAQ also contains lots of useful information how to master
+Panzer General.

 Free data for LGeneral was introduced for the first time with lgeneral-data in

 scenarios. This campaign is not complete yet but should be playable although
