[...] every table containing a non boolean variable. it is a clear and straightforward rule, easy to understand and enforce if needed, if someone start to make some sort of exceptions the pages return to the actual situation in no time. (manly because any person had a different feeling on the matter).

The good news is that I understand better your proposals now. But I can't agree to move that many tables, I'm sorry to say. One shouldn't have to visit the Secret stats page to learn what to do with the House Jade halfling.

yes a page can be long as needed and create even a midly usable page isn't a good policy, but the war is a ... box. many input, a lot of mute variable, but very few output, for now the arclent acceptance is the only real value that matter after the war. the basic concept isn't different for putting the war's walkthrough in a separated page.

To me is pretty much different. In my eyes, the segregation of the 3AW in its own page it's because the style has to be different and there is a lot of internal variables, switches and conditions that configure a highly variable playthrough. It was required to have a lot of detailed info to understand how you're faring. No other section of the game have so many different outcomes. And that is why a segregated guide makes sense: because the style is quite different that to describe a how to beat dungeon or what priorities you should have Governing Yhilin.

But the Secret stats page is, at heart, just a succession of lists. There is some analysis of what a score will eventually lead, but I don't find them to be so numerous, and it doesn't make the page that difficult to follow.

It's a good idea if we decide to move it, but why do we have to move it in the first place? It's part of the game and it seems pretty likely that it will play role during the chapter 4.

The Fulminato wrote: I'm not understand exactly what are you saying in the last part. Do you want to move all the country scores to a new page? Only Chalice States, New Givini and Tak-Kan? Why the distinction between countries? no, from my point of view the three new countries are grow to the size they can be put in a different page, adding all outher countries in arclent they alredy overboard the critical mass for it. and i cannot stop to think of the eight new states the game will drop in the arena in the future (well some of them had alredy a entry or two). i hope this explanation is more undestrandable.

Have you thought that the list for Simon's stats will be probably get even longer? Most of the new developments in the new countries increase also Economy and/or Social scores and I don't think that this trend will change. And although it happens less with the Religion score, we don't know if that will eventually change. I don't understand why you're more worried about Chalice States than Yhilin for instance.

But the important thing is that now I understand better about your concerns. I don't necessarily share them, but I understand what you mean.
