As I am sitting here taping my multi-piece, and throughly man-handled, wall chart from CTP1, I would like to take this opportunity to ask Activision to PLEASE(!!!) give us ONE-SIDED wall charts for CTP2 that we can hang on the wall and not have to spend our game playng time with one hand on the mouse and the other flip-flopping a giant piece of paper over and over!!!

I would like NOT to use a chart, but my brain is getting old and soft. And I DETEST having to constantly pull up little charts to get my info. When I am planning strategies, I like to look at the BIG picture all at once, not piece together a bunch of pull up charts. And besides, I prefer to hold a cold beer in my non-mouse hand, not this chart!!!

We will be including another tech tree poster. We won't be including two charts. I'll look into finding another way to present the data charts, but I think that there are too many stats to fit into the back of the manual in a readily accessible format.

Who needs a tech tree poster? When planning their technological advances, no one in reality knows what they are going to aim for in a thousand years time. I don't use the thing at all, you don't need to if you know what you're doing.

Well, you need the chart to initially learn what you are doing. Also, if you add a lot of stuff to the game and switch other things around (Med mod), then you need it to keep things straight. I have to use the Med mod's Advances Chart now to make sure I am heading towards what I need at the time, and I designed the mod!
Note to Lt. John;
Gedrin made a version of the Chart that looks just like the one which shipped with the game, though you need Adobe Acrobat to view it. If Activision would ship a similar file with the game it would be great, though the Microsoft file that Morgoth's wife initially made and I customized for the Med mod would be fine as well.
This way, mod-makers would have something to build off of, and normal users could refer to it or/and print out copies as needed when they get worn.
Other stats could be done as well. I am sure that the designers have such files for reference; why not include them in the game when the values are finalized?

We could probably release the charts in a PDF format through our web page.
I'm still trying to get the data tables in a booklet format- making some progress- I'll keep you posted.
