Well, there are nuances to those values I didn't have room for; a knight is usually worth a bit less than a bishop, for instance, and all values depend on the game and fluctuate wildly according to many strategic and positional factors.

I only made Other Games about a year ago - someone in 2k PR/marketing led me on before disappearing.  I wish I knew how to get arrested with those jokers - and that they'd figure out that cheesing off a venue, however small, is a very bad idea.

They're only trying to draw traffic to the 2k boards anyway I bet.

Now you're doing it wrong.  They haven't released a Sid game in -what?- eight or nine years?

No, not even technically - it was a junior developer team (who prefer CivRev ;goofy;) that made it.

I found copies with the diagrams embedded as images in both Word and Works formats, so I've added the attachments to the OP.

* Random quote

The ancient Chinese had a name for it: Feng Shui. We call it energy flow. It is the same thing, the same thought: energy is everywhere, but only a fraction of it is tapped by humans for their purposes. Now the Progenitors have taught us that we can tap not only our own latent abilities, but the latent abilities of the Universe itself.
~Prophet Cha Dawn 'Planet Rising'
