Click on the Printer Friendly link, do a Print Preview, and see how many pages it would be.

The Last time I imported into MS Word it was 60+ pages. That was several Versions ago. I'd guess it's 80-90 pages nowadays.

I need to upadate my copy.

We should also update the Dubvious guide as well. That thing is horribly out dated.

I notice that section 3.0 Research lacks these formulae:

Low tech cost: (Level Cost) * Level

Medium tech cost: (Level Cost) * (Level² / 2)
--> except at level 1, where the cost is simply Level Cost.

High tech cost: (Level Cost) * (Level²)

It is located in 1.6.1; I'll cross reference it.

Odd. I just tried it and mine was 85 pages. Maybe different fonts or point sizes...

Ok. Could you also make it explicit that at medium tech costs, level one technologies cost LC, not LC / 2?

Is there any FAQ or info on the best way to set up a TCP/IP game? Either via Internet or LAN?

Thanks,

Kana
