Great work, thanks.

I note the pdf versions do not yet contain the latest work, especially World wonders. Therefore, to read this at the moment, read the thread, not the pdf.

Since the upgrades to that are strictly Judean, that will go in the upcoming Judea section!

Thank you very much! Also, thanks for the efforts at creating the graphics to support the text.

If you think of this as a score, it would be worthwhile putting it to music, in otherwords, creating a video with commentary.

If you consider editing this later, please consider adding a "tips" section underneath each structure, to help improve our skills at playing the game by using each structure. You have already gone quite a way doing this already, though inline, rather than as a separate section.

For example, your section on Flax Farms, discusses locating those away from the capital so as to generate some extra income through trade. That was a good tip, but if you had included it at the bottom, people would have actively sought out the use of your guide. Also, by bullet pointing the tips, others could be suggested/added/edited into the document more easily by readers.

By having an "empty" tip section, it would prompt you or others to think harder about how to deploy that facility.
