Re: Where do newbies go to rant about the game?
Caradryan, even though you're a starving student and everything, I think if you really like the game then you should go and buy a sparkling new copy with the manual. Sure, some of the raw data is scattered about in the FAQ, and Edi's DB, and Cleveland's forging spreadsheet. But the manual contains most of the data you need, all in one handy little package. And you won't understand what some of the data means without the manual.
Here's some of the important stuff that's in the manual, but not posted online, at least as far as I'm aware. This is just off the top of my head:
- DRN probability table
- Turn Resolution Sequence
- National Terrain-Fort mapping
- National PD reference
- Magic items organized by item type (unlike spells, in the game you won't even see the items you're missing because you don't have the appropriate forge paths)
There's also chapters on combat, magic, and dominion spread, and reading these will give you a much better understanding of how the game works.
