Printed additions will not be made. FAQ's etc might be put on a page as suggested by Gandalph.
Thanks for the reply.
I understand, and I wasn't actually asking for printed additions. The problem with some of these things is that you don't know what to ask sometimes. For example, why would there be a reason to believe that knights behave in some way other than any other unit with multiple attacks? And it turns out that they do. Hence, I was thinking more along the lines of some further input from you, the IW, about the game mechanics in some format (not printed, electronical), not the player-made FAQs as such.

The problem is that I'm not aware of all mechanics that needs explaining. I thought that most players knew about the lances. There are hundreds if not thousands of tidbits of information that players are unaware of. I could probably only come up with ten on top of my head unless asked specifically about them.

We ourselves often forgets important mechanics. One infamous occasion was the magic weapons of Caelum that was suddenly rediscovered months after Dom I was released.
