Total Annihilation
Alright I'll re-merge things, however we need to clean this up because the length is just way too large. I'm suggesting for each unit and tier that we combine each section to include the ARM and the Core unit (they have the exact same amount of units right?). That way we can double up and reduce the page size (and the massive Table of Contents). -- 15:11, 11 January 2008 (CST)


 * Well I haven't played the game in a while, but for the heading I was thinking like using the separators we have currently (i.e. vehicle/plane) and then "Tier 1 Unit: ARMNAME, CORENAME" for the two names of the unit (1 if it's special).


 * For the expansion pack, we'll have a separate section in the ToC for the expansion pack and a /Units page for that game (since they don't apply to the original game by itself, we shouldn't really have it on that page). However if you want to be redundant you could make an expansion pack units header at the bottom of the TA/Units page.


 * "Are we using "unit" in the technical sense, or mobiles only?" Uh, I don't think that matters, when I'm saying unit I mean all of them in general.


 * "Should we consider including unit stats later (costs, build time, speed, hit points, firepower and rate)?" In the description, yes of course!


 * "Do we use "level" or "tier"? AFAIK "level" is TA usage, "tier" is TA:K." Whatever is suitable, we could use level and then switch to Tier if it's not actually correct (like if I played again and saw for myself what it was references as...).


 * For collaboration, it's best if you join the abxy irc server and talk to me in channel #strategywiki (or private message me). I'm in the USA, GMT -08 (coulda found that out yourself if you went to my user page).  -- 10:43, 12 January 2008 (CST)

A few pointers
Please read through the StrategyWiki guide to see how to lay out pages. New links should belong in the Table of Contents, the Getting Started is for basic information, and Controls is for the controls of the game (to name a few examples). Also, do not put links to other sites that contain strategy guide content. If you like the guide, use it as a basis when writing your own. The guide here on StrategyWiki should be as in-depth as possible, giving many details and strategies instead of just basic information. Please check out our completed guides and our currently featured guide as good examples for your guides.
