Revision as of 15:03, 2 March 2010
I really would like to see the main page in a more overviewable design,
e.g. instead of:
Guides Read In-depth guides on various topics from experienced players. Beginners could be interested in the new player startup guide or how to drive or how to use weapons. Fresh subscribers should definitely read the initial scout guide before leaving town. If you want to lead a scout squad yourself give the Scout Leading Guide a try.
rather:
Guides
- New player startup guide
- How to drive
- How to use weapons
- Initial scout guide
- Scout Leading Guide
comments?
