Default New to the game

Hi all. Just bought the game a couple of days ago and, as you all know, the documentation is nothing short of terrible. Could somebody tell me of any sites out there with information about the game?? I don't want spoiler strategies or anything, just information about how the game actually works and a tech tree to direct my research efforts. Any help much appreciated. Cheers.

other than the CD manual, you're at one of the best places here in this forum. Do a search on a question you have. If not found post here. This is an unusually friendly crowd

Welcome. Check out Dubious' Strategy Guide from the Mod/Scenario Forum
http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/For...ML/000019.html

It contains a huge summary of helpful Posts, hints, strategy...
For the TechTree: you can enable the "Players can see complete Techtree" in GameSetup (but just before you start a new game, you can't set it in a current game), with this one enabled, you'll find an extra button in the research window.

There's also a complete tech tree available somewhere among the Mods downloads.
