Player development is key to the success of Empire. If we do not provide resources for educating players in this game, we will doom ourselves to be a niche game, that serves only a very small market. While we pride ourselves on being comprised of individuals who are more savvy than is the norm for net based games, we can not turn away from the reality that we must have better means of educating our player base.

Follow-on to the User's Guide to Empire, written in 1991. Intended to be far more comprehensive in nature, with information for players of all ability levels.

Status: In progress, with ~30 pages as of mid-July, 2003. Needs more volunteers.
