when searching for new games i want to purchase the first thing i do after reading a review about it is looking for a rulebook on the web. offical one isn't needed but one that will explain me how the game works. i decided to make a geeklist about it to hopefully help other people that are seeking rulebooks of games on the web.

Fantasy Flight Games has a great idea in that they post the rules to virtually every board game that they have. They even publish the rules for games that are still on the horizon, Warrior Knights a case in point. I wish more did that, especially Eagle Games. I would have saved my coin and War! Age of Imperialism wouldn't be a dust collector on my shelf. I read the rules and then never even punched the game out.:yuk:

Seems as though I was wrong about FFG being unique. I guess I should read the whole list next time.:shake:

Seems common practice for GMT to post their rulebooks. I just got Here I Stand in the mail yesterday, but I've had the rulebook for weeks.

Do you try to create the largest geeklist ever?
There are *many* rulebooks on the web. And since you allow 'explanations' too, the number is much higher again.

I could start with adding the 16 rule books of alea games that can be found at http://www.aleaspiele.de/Pages/Instructions/

BTW do you know that there are many rulebooks on the web that aren't in english?

Wouldn't it be better to add all of these as links to the respective game pages?

Nate, I found this very useful, thanks.

Don't understand why so many people feel a need to weigh in with negative criticism.

Why aren't the designers/publishers worried about people "stealing" their games?
