EB 1.0 game guide

Maybe a team member could comment on what is being planned, or even if one is being released with 1.0.

I think it's safe to say there will be no manual for 1.0. I seem to recall a post about a manual on the dev forum, but I can't remember what the results were.

Thanks Bovi.

Well, I won't get too into it yet, just in case you guys come back and say you're going to do one afterall.

I might begin to contemplate what kind of info would be useful to a new player, what info would be superfluous, etc.

PDF would also likely be the best format to use.

Hmmmm....

*heads back to the tavern to have an ale, and contemplate such things*

Bootsiuv - Just PM me when you have some ideas or want to get started and what not if you want some help.

Will do....the basic format could be figured out, but I think we'll actually have to wait for the actual game to be released before anything concrete can be worked out.

I'm wondering if an in-depth gameplay guide for each faction with building trees, unit trees etc. might also be a good thing. I think that would be made an addendum available for download seperately, so as not to take away from the joy of those who want to discover the games for themselves.

I'll dwell on it for a while, and, with the EB teams blessing, might actually get a little team going to make something happen.

We'll see....

Could be, but just a "basic" manual with all the new player needs to get started should be there first, so yeah if that was the case either have as a separate download or just after the important stuff in the same doc.

I wouldn't put it in the same doc, for the spoiler reasons stated above. I only want people to see the units and buildings if they want to.

A very large Spoiler disclaimer would accompany the addendum, that is certain.
