Hello everyone

Believe it or not, I just found out about this game a couple of days ago from a fellow member of my WoW server. He started a server so I thought I would try it out. Ran out of turns real quick. Is there somewhere I can go that will tell me a bit more about the game than the instructions in game? I thank you all for the help and hope I don't come up against most of you all for awhile. From what I have been reading in this forum, I wouldn't last 5 min.....heheh

If you wanna put in the work, knock yourself out. One thing my site doesn't have a lot of is tactical advice (Ship to Ship combat, on-line invasions, gridding under fire, etc...) So, if you wanna write some stuff on that, I'd be happy to host your articles on my site. [:D]

Ok, I’ll eat a little crow here.

I’m not sure if I have the knowledge or the time to do write ups of that sort but if I do find time and the knowledge I would love to contribute to your site. The other thing is those topics are kinda a trial and error thing most of what I know about them came from trying this and dieing then trying something else and getting away with it then trying the same thing and dieing. There seems to be an element of luck involved and it also all depends on who your up against what would work ageist an less experienced player wont necessarily work ageist someone who has been playing for awhile.

To be completely honest I’m not sure anyone could do a better job documenting Tradewars like you have. Your site is the best learning site I have found so far. Anything I would do would probably be a direct copy of your site. If it were not for your site I would have quit this game a long time ago.

I also think the best part is the article “If I were an Evil Overlord.”

Now that didn’t taste too bad. Kinda like chicken. :P

<Note to self never joke with Traitor that way again.>

Coke,
[:P]

Speed Demon,
Thanks. I had a LOT of help. Even the guys who can't stand me have helped support the site for the good of the community.

Seriously, if anyone wants to contribute to it, just drop me a line.
