Ayo choombas;
For those amongst you who feel interested, I'm publishing the headings of a simFAQ
for 'Legionaire Astartes', a proposed 3D 1st person game based on Games Workshop's
Warhammer 40 000 universe.
Here it is:
--------------------------------SIM FAQ------------------------------
LEGIONAIRE ASTARTES: WARHAMMER 40 000
This FAQ is intended to answer some of the Frequently Asked Questions
about xyz/Games Workshop's game: Legionaire Astartes.
ORGANISATION:
There are seven sections in this FAQ, and all questions/subjects are
arranged below them hierachically. Each sub-section inherits the
'location' of its parent subject as well as adding on of its own.
This makes for logical structure, and also easy searching, but the
question list below may seem a little daunting. And mercy be to the
poor bastard who has to HTMLize this text.
If you feel dwarfed by the list below, fear not. Just use your
viewer's 'find' feature to jump to the subject most relevant to you.
And if you feel that this FAQ is too big or detailed, take a look at
the ROTT FAQ or search for the 'Cyphernomicon'.
One last thing: I had at first hoped to include every single heading
in the question list to allow for easy searching. However, with
things such as enemy descriptions this is simply not feasible. What
you will find is that questions/headings at the bottom of a question
tree will not appear where the headings are repeated from previous
listings (such as enemy stats). The exception is questions/headings
at the top of a question tree.
