Default POLL MM, help us...information wanted on battle strategies!

The "Strategies" menu of the Empire Status tab (F11) requires us to make many choices. Many of us do not have a clear understanding of the effect the choices we select will have on the battle to be fought.

Not having a clear understanding limits the range of responses we can make to a situation.

The question is:

Are you interested in Malfador Machinations providing us information on the options available so we can make more informed choices?

Why not post a *link* to the thread?

Ok...I assume "text" is the name of the thread Y/N?

Okaaaayyyyyy...........

These may be really dumb questions, but....

What does:
1) "[b]" stand for?
2) "f=23" mean or stand for?
3) "t=006669 mean or stand for?
