Jason, at the start of the manual, could we have a chapter that lists and explains the differences between Modern Wars and current JTCS games. Existing JTCS customers could then quickly familiarize themselves with the new features without having to read through the rest of the manual.
 
Or failing that, could you highlight differences in gameplay with a special icon in the margin at the appropriate sections. You know the sort of thing I mean, I'm sure...bit like Dummies books

A good topical index. Really a useful thing in any reference. The index in the current manual is really quite good but a few annotations might be helpful. For example, under Assault, 16 page references are given. It might help users if those references could be more specifically identified.
