I think something in the line of:

My archers are producing lots of friedly fire, what can i do about it?

Set them to fire Archers so they shoot farther away and might even kill a mage.

and

Which spells can i use to attack players anonymously?

Seeking Arrow, Hurricane, Locust Swarm, Diesease Demon and all the others i forgot here

Its just that "veterans" seems to change depending on who you talk to. Many use the words but can only name a couple. For one group it seems to be Quantum and Boron, for another group is Graeme and Norfleet, yet another list IronHawk and Morkilus? Unless of course you are the server/documentation crowd which have their own "veterans" (haha)

I think "read the manual" responses are fine...if you give the page numbers.

Q: Can I get rid of afflictions? How?
Kirke the Pharmakeia, a Sauromatia national hero, also has the Heal Troops ability

More on afflictions in the FAQ:

You might want to add that units 'born' with battle afflictions (Forge Lord, flagellants, etc) can be healed through the usual affliction healing process (Arco priestess etc).

And it's pretty obvious from just playing the game and also mentioned in other threads, but armies can get diseased if there is simple not enough food available.

Here's something I'm currently trying to find out: can a missing eye caused by using an Eye of Aiming be healed? And if so, does the Eye of Aiming pop out of your head, or do you end up with 3 eyes? I've been waiting a while in a current game to see if it ever heals. It hasn't yet.

You can't heal afflictions from replacement parts without getting rid of the parts -- but the parts (hearts and eyes) are pretty much always cursed, so you can't get rid of them except by

* death
* transforming into something that doesn't even have misc slots
* possibly, casting Wish for a misc item and getting an item bounced out -- but haven't experimented to see what the order of precedence is (first slot? non-cursed items bounced first?)
* and if it's a unique part (The Green Eye, say), somebody else can pull it out via Wish, into their own misc slots

Minor notes:
 
Blessing section doesn't mention the cap on the Astral bless (max MR). Death Curse isn't explained; this is an obvious follow-up.

Some other questions that seem to be fairly common:
- Why aren't my <duplicate magic items> stacking?
(design decision)
- What is the best nation for a newbie?
(snarky answer: depends on preferred playing style)
- How do I cure insanity?
(can't)

Q: Who is this Norfleet I keep hearing about?
A: Shhhhhh! We no longer speak that name. He was once the most powerful of our wizards. But he used his power for evil.
Oh wait, that is Voldemort.
Yes that is the answer. Norfleet is our Voldemort.

I'd remove excessively pedantic technical information that is not likely to be very useful for novices. The list of disease-causing units, for example, or the exact magic requirements for faerie queens.

Also, remove the <text in brackets>, it's <annoying> to <read>.

Can I copy the FAQ to the Dom 3 entry on the Strategy Wiki?
