Matrix Games Forums

Just got the game, read the manual...most intimidating even for a long-time wargamer like me (though I hasten to thank the devs for MAKING one, which is too often deferred to Youtube).
Is there anywhere a "guide" for new players? A summary of tips, best initial approaches, etc., to ease one into the game?
Thank you.

Can't answer that exactly but I have found reading some of the manual, then playing a small scenario against the AI for a bit, till you get comfortable with it, then re-reading the manual, I find this helps understanding the concepts in the manual. Then replay and once you feel you have a good understanding of the basics, read up on the more advanced concepts, and try out a larger scenario.

Reading through this forum will give a ton of helpful information. Lots of discussions on areas of importance. There is a lot of depth to this game and takes a little time to grasp the concepts but once you do, it is very easy and rewarding to play.

First I read the manual. Then I am looking for videos on Youtube. Today I watched two good ones from Strategy Gaming Dojo. There are many more.
