I bought the Admiral edition. Today when I went to go pic a portrait and add my to the list of Officers the accept button was not working. I would press it and nothing happened. Not sure if I am doing something wrong or if its a possible glitch. The other questions I have are regarding the factions and officers. Are we limited to Naval Officers in one faction or are they randomized with each campaign? I had family fight on both sides of the Revolution so its more of a curious question.
