Preserving the Ancient Homm Wisdoms for the future?

Guys.. we gotta take some kind of measures to preserve the ancient knowlege about homm tactics in some form, because otherwise we risk losing them.

The Glory days of Homm3 are over..  most of the veteran players have left these lands now, and the youthful n00bs are taking over. Once again, the "truths" out there come in the form of "solmyr iz L33t!", "I always take teh EXP", and "The best conflux hero is Fiur". Sure, its hard to teach those guys how to play, but I think we owe it to Homm3 to not let its strategies get perverted like that. Somehow, there should be an accumulation of Homm3 strategy; much like Franks Tactics thread, but in a more concentrated form, and with more backup sources.

Perhaps a good way would be to put together a .pdf strategy guide, or at least a word document in a zipfile?

What do you guys think?

But.. but.. solmyr IS L33t!  Isn't that all we need to know to play this silly game?

Uh oh.  *hides from the shotguns*

How about this?:

If we start by listing all the sources that should/could be used for the guide, thats a good start. Please include links if you can, to make it easier to summarize  (The more people that gather up this data - the better the information in the strategy guide will be, so lets get going )

Then once all the sources are linked in one thread, I, or someone else or a team could put it all together in readable form and with reasonable division into chapters.

Once that is done, we could have it reviewed by everyone that wants to (beta test), and make changes where needed/desired. Including pictures as examples would be great too (this could possibly be done in a 2nd version?)

Still loads to contribute to it, especially for peculiar, often repeating battles or similiar. Alas, I have no time now, and there are better players then me nowdays, I'm not as active as before and don't deem myself skilled enough any more. I will keep adding stuff as it comes though. Still, I think a H5 like strategy manual would be best, but then again, there were more people included in doing it, too much to swallow for just one.
