Abysian Yes, Black Forest No

While I enjoy finding things out and finding out what works with what, part of the 'learning curve' of Dominions 2 is the fact that there is so much of this 'explore' aspect. I believe there should be some things that should be exploration, while other things should be referenced.

That is why there is such an effort to make the learning curve less harsh by certain members for ourselves (because we're crazy) and for others (so they don't keep asking the same questions over and over). I'd be more inclined to leave out certain 'fun' things while giving the players a base knowledge so they can plan their pretender/nation easier.

Another aspect of the exploration is the fact that SP and MP are so different, which allows 2 levels of exploration.
