Well my second topic... again a help one ^^. Anyway, is the manual to this game important?? (does it have alot of information?) because I traded for my copy on a game trading website, (gametz.com) and the guy didn't have box/manual, so I was just wondering if I'm missing alot. I'm pretty confused with the game right now, just trying stuff out, and if the manual is important, is there somewhere I can read it online?? or download a .pdf?? Thanks.

Yeah I think its important but only for some things. I bought this game a long time ago and never looked at the manual. About two months ago I found the CD but not the manual and learned how to play. I'm still a bit cloudy on some issues (hence my post in the entrance forum).

I found the table of contents in the Main Hall and some of the posts in these forums more helpful than the manual.

The manual is not that great. the tech tree is very important though. You can find some replicas of the tech tree in the downloads section.

Here is something that is still much better than the manual:

MTW Strategy Guide (http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/074400182X/ref=sr_aps_books_1_1/026-1505976-2865239)

This guide explains a lot more about the game (the battle system in particular). Couple that with information available on these forums and the net and you have all you need.

Alright, thanks I was thinking of buying a new copy just to get the manual and stuff... http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/tongue.gif but I guess I'll just check out those resources.
