    Good idea Beanie!

    "Encyclopaedia bellum" ... can we put bellum in the genitive plural for "encyclopaedia bellorum"? Or even better, an adjective for "encyclopaedia bellicos". And how his that section distinguished from statecraft?

    Niiiice, I really like that as n intro. Are you thinking about putting it in the wiki, and we could all discuss and contribute to it? (Crowdsourcing FTW)

    My Steam download's lack of a manual means that I, for one, would heartily welcome such a tome. Particularly one coming from such a learned scholar as yourself sir.

    So this hasn't been made yet, right?

    I would like to help out..
    Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

    Cool store, bro! I want some ham.
    No ham, pepsi.
    They make deli slices of frozen pepsi now? Awesome!
    You also need to purchase a small freezer for storage of your pepsi.
    It runs on batteries. You'll need a few.
    Uhh, I guess I won't have pepsi then. Do you have change for a twenty?
    You can sift through the penny jar

    An update!

    I have the game. I'll be playing for a few days, to get a feel for things. Then I'll start writing.

    Encyclopaedia Bellum – basically a big list of factions, provinces, units and things of that sort. The sort of guide you can glance at if you want to know what provinces France start with say.

    The Art of Statecraft – a campaign map strategy guide, with helpful hints and the like

    The Field Marshall’s Guide – battle map strategy guide, with info about formation and tactics

    The Captain’s Log (I might change this name) - naval map strategy guide, with info on tactics and similar things.

    Thanks for all the offers of help I have recieved! . Once I start the guide I'm sure I can find something for everyone to do. Probably raw data collection, and contributing tips and tricks.

    The actual guide itself will probably be written entirely by me, in 18th century style. I'm also going to attempt to make the guide as funny as I can. I'm aiming for entertaining and informative. That means it will probably take quite a while to finish however.
