Default Re: New Dom2 Quick Reference Sheet

I have few ideas for showing research:
Either show the cheapest possible research point/upkeep mage when magic scale is at 0, or the best researh/gold proportion (or ratio, is there difference between these two words?) in ten turns?

And thanks, this looks great! You are doing very nice job with this!

A few minor nitpicking suggestions:

I think you should include Fires of Faith Marignon if possible. We know that it's very similar to regular Marignon, but if you're doing the sheet for the newbies, they probably don't. Hence, you could specifiy what is different in the special Category, and leave everything else the same.

Carrion Pangaea does not have a ? (random magic).

Marignon theme is called "Conquerors of the Sea", not "Sea Conquerors".

Jotunheim is still spelled Jotumheim.

Very nice work.

Looks great!

...However, it makes me think that under Max Units, max undead, max flying, and max magic should probably also be listed.... hmmm. I never tabulated those.

Notes:

Arco: Gets cheap labs
Atlantis: Missile mispelled
Man: Stealth Priest, cheap temples
Ulm: I would say "Cheaper Item Forging" because "superior" always confuses newbies
"Unit Max" column: Not quite wide enough for the word "Normal"
Machaka: Stealth unit limit 10.
Overall: If another column could be added, I would suggest "Heat Scale". But I doubt there's room for that=(

Very nice work.
Thanks! I agree, I think I will add it back in. I've made you're other corrections too. Thanks!

Actually, I've decided to remove the Max Units column entirely from the NQR. I'm thinking for the AQR I'll add a column named 'max units' that'll have an amount followed by an infantry icon for normal units, a steath icon for steath... undead, flying and magic should be easy to add.

I instituted your other corrections, SC, but I think that any heat scale notes can just be incorporated into the special column.

Wow, this is really starting to come together. I'll post another update tonight.
Hopefully I can release 'NQR RC1' by tomorrow. The AQR won't we out til next week, I'm afraid.

A few more corrections:
If you're going to go with Saber's solution to the Arco mystics, i.e. listing all their elemental randoms and then listing ??? later on, you're missing Earth there.

You're also missing Nature in Tien Chi Spring & Autumn.

You have Niefelheim and Utgard the other way around in magic, and Niefelheim is missing one ? (random).

One Death is missing from the regular Jotunheim.
