Corrected On-line Manual for HoI? Support Apolyton, buy Civilization: The Boardgame

I've read in this review that Paradox released an online corrected manual! Does anybody know where I can find it? I searched on the sites of Startegy First and Paradox but I couldn't find it!

So long...

I've not heard about this online manual before, and I know for sure it isn't on the official site. I think the information you've got is wrong. Not the first time a gaming site has given wrong information...

That'S what I thought. But the problem still remains the manual to the game is horrible. There is a lot of info missing and there is no real coherence and organization.

So long...

All Paradox manuals appear to be absolutely useless.

I wonder if the problem is translation or they need a Professional Writer

Well lookey here, I'm going to have a Pro. Writing degree in a year and a half, maybe...

The translations, although odd in parts are understandable. Its the lack of contents page, index pages and... oh yes - useful factual information.

The in game tips are ok, but they aren't easy to access.

The manual sucks, and is horribly inaccurate in parts: infrastructure increasing industrial output? Hmm.

The HOI forum is much more helpful-now I can actually have a paratrooper assault (If i'm lazy)

I think that one is supposed to be a game bug rather than a manual glitch.

Their FAQ section does have useful info (and its gradually building up) but is still a way from constituting a full manual.

The best resource for learning how the game works is the HoI FAQ and general discussion forum. If you search there and can't find your topic, you've probably misspelled your key words, but people will be glad to answer if you ask

That was fixed a long time ago. I see people using bombers in MP all the time. Get the latest patch and you'll find the game more enjoyable.
