West Front Manual - Sgt_Rock - 06-28-2012

Guys - can anyone tell me if the Matrix version of West Front included a PDF manual and if so does it include the vehicle data charts that were in the original Talonsoft manual for the game?

I have my manual but it is deep in my storage area. My back gives me problems these days and I really would not want to have to dig through a ton of boxes just to find it.

If the PDF has the data tables (armor values, when the particular vehicle appeared, that kind of stuff) then I will boot up my old PC where I have it installed and download it from there.

Either that or I will contact John Tiller to see if he has a PDF version of the manual.

If you play a scenario the top "M" menu bar has a "help" link on the far right. I am not sure if they are PDF but the tables are located under different links.

Hmm, that is too time consuming to work with. I will have to find my manual.

What? dizzy

I was trying to save you your back. It took me 30 seconds to get the files you wanted.

It's in one of 2 places:

From the windows start menu: Programs/John Tiller's Campaign Series/Documentation/and the pdfs are in that folder.

Or try C:/Matrix Games/John Tiller's Campaign Series/Manuals (C: being the drive you installed it on).

Thanks Dave. Thank you 3
I thought he was looking for a hard paper copy of weapons and unit data. I'm not even sure it is in the original hard copy.

I would go where I sent him and then copy and paste the info to print it. Write

He might also want to register for the CS Ladder to get a game or two going? Idea2

Alternatively, one could access the Unit Viewer.

It tells you everything about all the units available in all games.

He did give this response earlier:

I don't use unit viewer much or I would have mentioned it. I did look at my Rising Sun manual from Talonsoft. Weapons data etc is definitely in there.

Thanks guys, I do not have the game installed on my current PC. I will fire up my older PC and retrieve the necessary files. Again, thanks for your help!
