When you look at the threads for information, it normally shows the threads only going back for one year. You can change that so look at all of the threads for help. But also look at what the updates have changed as well.

Bookmark the threads that you think that you will need to look at again and again. When in doubt, bookmark it.

Heed Alfred's advise, he is usually correct and will cite relevant threads and/or parts of the manual.

Question. In the "Opponents Wanted" form section, I saw the phrase: "Open to stock, DaBabes, RA, etc."
What does "DaBabes" mean?
What does "RA" mean?

Neither Kull nor I recommend new players attempt to play any mods before they have learnt the standard game mechanics involved in the official scenarios which are numbered 1-25. Any scenario number 26 and above is a mod.

Status: offline 		Thanks for advice. Good to know it's a different game. I remember I printed the original manual....huge mistake. Anyway I'm going to get a different map mod but that's the only mod I'm using whilst I learn. Oh but as an aside are there any improved art packs for ships and planes? I remember i used loads of them on the original..
