Default Online Manual

For those who cannot download the game on their work computers, is there an online or other form of the manual?
If you study it at work it doesn't horn in on your playing time at home, hehe

I'm in the same boat as you.
I guess we could email the link from our home computers to the workplace and that might work. Doesn't really help with today though.

Actually I can download the game at work but figured someone is going to have this problem and I didn't want to waste Shrapnel's bandwidth for a game that won't play on that computer (no video card).
After dl'ing SPWAW at 400+mb just for the manual, I found a player that has that manual for dl on his website.

I just went ahead and printed the thing out. Massive, I tell you, but I can't stand having to alt-tab back and forth.

What manual are you talking about ? I did expect a pdf (obviously for me )but only found some html pages.. That's the manual ? I hate html manuals 'cause you can't print them properly...

I have heard exactly the same thing said about PDF ( i.e. they hate it ) The manual is in HTML becasue virtually everyone has the capability to view HTML.

We attempt to make everyone happy but it's simply not possible. I can assure you if we had made the manual PDF we'd have complaints about that too.

Hope this helps some people out

Well, WinSPMBT is a different game so don't know how this link you posted will help...

To make everyone happy just make both !
Manual is not a big point for me anyway, now I play SP games since 10 years ...

And the game is really good, I remember many frustrations with the original SP2 (lack of realism, engine not-that-good for modern combat), it's all gone with SPWinMBT, kudos guys !

Unfortunately this doesn't work. Don't know why I thought it might thinking about it with hindsight. It'll have to be a cut and paste job instead.
