Manual???

[mlcrawfo]

I just bought the game via eBay (CD only). Where can I find a physical or electronic copy of the manual?

Thanks,

Mark

On eBay, probably. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Have you done a web search? There used to be fan sites which would tell you almost everything you need to know. The Wargamer (www.wargamer.com) used to have a fan site including a nice hotkey table to print out, for example.

Well, I have the original manual with 70 pages and lot of appendix included.... it was a good manual and helped me a lot to understand the game... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif


Remember to patch the game at the last version and if you want to try the multiplayer option we can arrange a game... but I never tried it in multiplayer... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/tongue.gif

I've played 101st in multi-player. I remember there was something counter-intuitive to me about how to enter the IP address, but it was rather fun to play multi-player. Humans can of course do much different things than what the AI usually does.
