Yes the spreadsheet will be best so we can sort the columns easily. Also each unit trait should consist of three alphanumeric characters because using two or less can make it difficult to search for specific traits. For example the current unit list uses only "a" for aquatic and when searching for aquatic units the gamer has to manually scroll the list looking for a single "a" instead of using edit/find and typing "aq1" for aquatic.
Three alphanumeric characters should cover all possible unit traits.
Each stat is going to have its own column instead of the Dom2DB format of most special abilities being in a mishmash in a single column, so you can sort by whatever criteria you want without trouble.
