Tim,
If you'd be so kind as to scan a page in the manual that's less chart and more a sign of what Bruce wrote to guide new players, I'd appreciate that. I'm trying to sell my friends on the new game being more accessible than Dom2 and being able to point to a page or two that shows how much more user-friendly the manual is would be a great help. If no time, no worries. I imagine, I can work on the selling part in two weeks, if I'm not too busy playing.
