So there's a few pages in our wiki that I'd like to draw people's attention to:
http://www.majorcommand.com/wiki/Getting_Started
http://www.majorcommand.com/wiki/Playing_Your_Turn
http://www.majorcommand.com/wiki/Team_Games

We have a nice mix here of world domination veterans and relative rookies. For the former, I'm wondering if the above pages, especially the first two, help you get used to our interface. For the latter, I'm wondering if all three make, you know, sense, especially the last one, since team games are a rather different animal than the usual singles games.

Thanks!

Your troop container section should include a sentence that explains each map will have its own specific troop containers. They will look different but function the same. The instead of showing 1, show at least 5 from different maps (aka styles)

As far as regions and commands go, It might be nice to include an image for each section. If we use the Evolved map as our wiki map, we could doctor some images to show regions and commands. Especially since you refer to North America and such.

Reinforcement: players can reinforce troops to and through (for Path reinforcements) their teammate's regions.

for Path reinforcements should also include Anywhere as well.

On another note, I was not aware we could reinforce through our own team, very interesting. Make sense

Widow.... it's a wiki, you should see an [edit] button in there.

Just sayin...

Thanks for the suggestions, wids. I'll add some more images, tho I do think going into too much detail about troop containers might be counterproductive in what's supposed to be a relatively simple "getting you started" page.

Anyone know what happened to the left-hand toolbar? Dunno how to upload pics without the handy "upload files" link, and I don't have the actual page handy.
