<!-- ===================================================================
NEW GAME — the seed, the opening hand, and what the three economies pay.
It was a `prompt()` asking for a seed. Two of the three things that decide what kind of game
you are about to play had no way in at all: the opening hand had been changed twice with no
way back to the earlier rule, and the revenue rates were constants in the source. Balance is
the open question in this game (`TODO.md`), and the way to settle it is to deal several games
at different settings — which needs a dialog, not a rebuild.
Every control has a default that is the recommended answer, so DEAL with nothing touched is a
complete, sensible game. The settings ride in the URL alongside the seed, because a seed alone
no longer names a game: `?seed=430` with a different opening hand is a different railroad.

<h3>Starting hand</h3>
<p class="ng-note">What each player is dealt before the first turn. The hand limit is three either way — deal six and the first turn is spent choosing which of them to keep.</p>

<h3>Revenue</h3>
<p class="ng-note">What each piece of work pays, 0 to 5. A coach pays when it is boarded and again when it is detrained; a load pays when it is made up and again when it is broken. Zero switches an economy off so the others can be read.</p>
