How do i allow the user to have a chose of playing boards at start up?  
For example, a Street board or Sand board.

I thought Map Window-Boards and just increase the number of boards on offer?  
But no effect.

If you have more than one Board under Map Boards, it will prompt the player to pick. It won’t if you have a predefined setup however. If you have predefined setups, it will go with that instead.
