Does this manual actually teach you how to play?

[Grotius]

So the digital download includes a PDF manual, right? The bound manual is an optional additional purchase?

Edit: Found my answer in the "invade your bookshelf" thread. PDF included with download; bound manual sold separately.

Sweet. Looks like Xmas gift going to come early this year.

Is the "Players Handbook" part of the hardbound manual, or is it only available digitally?

This is a great thread. I also need a great manual to get my head around things and enjoy. I will wait a while and see what new players think of the manual, but that screenshot look very promising.

JGlazier, you would die if you bought AGEOD games. Incomplete documentation, nothing explained correctly, no one really knows anything - freaking disaster.

It is only available digitally but I designed it specifically with home printing in mind.

Hahaha. I own a few AGEOD games, and enjoy Alea Jacta Est and Wars in America 2 the most. I had to watch a bunch of videos to even begin to understand those games. The AJE manual is not horrible, but I know what you are talking about.

Anyway, this is WitW, and the manual and game guides appear to be a masterpiece.

There is a great video on YouTube by Slitherine playing Husky. It demonstrates how to actually play the game, what to focus on, which buttons to press in which order, which to me is the best tutorial.

Just bought the game, total newbie here, never played Wite even if i'm playing wargames (both PC and boardgames) since the 70'. The game is great and the video tutorials very well done. Looking forward to spend some quality time with this monster of a game.

Thank you.

Great - have fun Gerardo!

Just wanted to add my opinion that the player handbook is excellent and a great addition to the game manual.

It really helps bridge the gap between knowing nothing and getting a start on being somewhat competent. WitE was always very daunting to learn with only the forums and the giant reference to go by.

Well done.
