Each faction will have its own seoerate comprehensive guide, from beginning to the end of the game (how to start off, tactics, projects, tech goals, base facitlies, etc.)

There will also be a sperate guid on terraforming.

And a seperate section describing how to effectively fight a war (through cold war, to all out war).

I'm currently working on my first faction guide right now... the UoP (I play them the most, so I know how to get them off to a good start.) Try to write this at thinker level, because at transcend, the tactics truly change totally from other levels, so it wouldn't help beginning players at all. If anybody wants to write a faction guide, email me at [email protected] and tell me the guide your interested in writing, or at least contributing to.

So far...
UoP - about 35% done (with what I have to put in it at least)
all others, 0%

So if you would like to contribute, and you are a veteran player who has won consistently for the faction they are writing for on at least thinker, then please feel free to offer your services, they would be greatly appreciated. I plan on each guide being completely thorough, so I'm looking at guides of more than just a one or two pages (my UoP
looks like it is going to be about 4-7 pages long when complete. If you don't feel that you are up to that, just write what you can and send it to me, I'll fill it in with the other needed strategies. If you want to write or help write the guide for terraforming, drop me an email. Same goes for the tactics guide as well. Well I hope I can get some support. Oh yeah, and if you do help, your name will be mentioned in the guide, along with what contributions you have made. I'm not going to take all the credit
