Zen, are you going to be recording the stats of the creatures?

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">That was pretty much the point...

Sending you an email right now so you can reply.

The reason that the MIQR was placed in a PDF was for it's printer friendly Version. While being able to Alt-tab is nice, some people just like things printed out and helpful for newbies in that fashion.

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">And a great idea that was. Printer-friendly is good.

Alright I've run into a few snags as far as organization is concerned.

Would people rather have the SCQR Letter Size with more lines of text per entry or Landscape size with less lines of text per entry.

I'm leaning towards Letter. I also need to know how much space I have to leave for the .img files so that I can space it correctly.

Anyone know offhand what would be best for the size of pictures?

Another point, if anyone wants to give any feedback.

Do you want it sorted by Path? Or by School.

Example

(By Path)

Death
Black Servant - Conjuration 1
Reanimation - Enchantment 1
Summon Shades - Conjuration 2
Revive King - Enchantment 2
Revive Wight - Conjuration 3
Revive Bane - Conjuration 3
Create Revenant - Enchantment 3

Or
By School based on Level

Summons Level 1

Conjuration
Black Servant - Death
Awaken Vine Men - Nature

Construction
Construction Corpse Man - Air/Death

Enchantment
Reanimation - Death

Blood Magic
Bind Spine Devil - Blood
Bind Bone Fiends - Blood/Death


Or if anyone has any better suggestions. I'd like to know now since I have most of the information I'm just looking at how to present it easiest to refer to.

Edit: I took some time and I have the Upkeeps for most all summons now as well.

Path path.
Really hate "sort by school", waste my time in jadish finding when set order/cast ritual...

I think sorted by school has its purposes but the game already does that. Sort by path gives a new way of considering things.

The SCQR is nearly done. With the exception of the "Prettifying" (I.E. In game pictures of units) it is done, if you'd like a copy of the xls file that is currently done and rough, send me an Email. Expect the PDF to be out in a day or two to any nearby websites that will host it.
