OHHHHh my. Memories of the long conversation THAT sparked in the newsGroups the first time.

If you are going to do this I would split it into 2 threads. The initial desire was to give newbies something they could play with, learn with, and soon develop a desire to improve on. And to do it soon.

Obviously, this is what is needed right now. Anything that will make the game easier to approach for new players.

I'd say we need this quickly, to make the demo usable by people who don't know DomI at all. Preferably the races in the demo, obviously. It would be even better if the whole lot covered a wide range of different strategies, and provided an interesting setup if 6 people used them in a game. With no manual available, it's even more important.

(Honestly, this should have been part of the original package provided with the demo; "I don't understand what's happening in this demo" seems to be the most common complaint about it from new players who never played DomI)
