Re: MoV usage
My issues with the manual weren't with the game specific content-those were fine, and I didn't mind the strategy guide. I didn't use it a whole lot, but it gave my an introduction to each Nation. I don't deny that Mr Geryk knows how to write a manual, and he did do a professional job.
What I didn't like was that the manual wasn't written in a way that made me want to play the game, or even want to spend enough time with the manual to find the answer to a problem.
Mr Geryk may have been learning the game along with the rest of us, but it didn't seem like an activity he particularly enjoyed, or a genre he was fond of. It was a passable job-and actually, I consider the strategic section a highlight-but I've read manuals that it was fun to read, and this manual just wasn't.
