Ok, here's the deal, I've had a million questions since diving into this project and we all know that, with all respect, the manual sucks, so we need a FAQ.

I started a wiki, anyone can use it, edit it whatever. I would like if people asked questions here and answered them in the wiki. That way there would be less to sift through.

Here's the link:

Wiki FAQ for WIPT AE

The process would look something like this:

1) I am joe newby and I read:

15.8 BURMA ROAD
For the Allies, if a rail/road/trail path free of Japanese units between Tsuyung and Ledo or between Tsuyung and Rangoon can be traced, than each day, 500 supply points per turn are added to Tsuyung.

2) So I look at my map and wonder why there is no trail path connecting Ledo and Tsuyung.

3) so I jump on the forum and search for an answer; I get no relevant response but spend three hours reading interesting information that changes my strategy.

4) I post a post saying something like: "I searched and found nothing so Whiskey Tango Foxtrot Over?"

5) Matrix Elite Guard "MacArthur lover" jumps on in 32 seconds and says "hey newby, this question was asked forty times last week, check out the post at http"//xxx"

6) I, as Joe Newby, read the post and realize it roughly answers my question, so I take the answer and post it on the wiki.

In six months all the important questions will have been asked and answered, six months after that, a newby will have posted the answers on the WIki. In a year we will have a FAQ.

Hopefully this works.

What I do not want: the forum moving or developing in the WIKI. Questions with no answers still need to be hammered out here, I only hope that a definitive, or nearly definitive, answer will be posted in the WIKI.

Good Hunting
