Wiki
Everything about Aetas — guides that teach you to play, and tables taken straight from the game.
The wiki has two kinds of pages. The guides are written by hand: how to start, how the economy works, what beats what. The pages from the game data are regenerated with every release out of the same files the game itself loads — so they cannot go stale.
