A Rough Guide to the PBeMBB Tool

Post by Joemanji »

Hey there chaps. I have been trying to put this together for a while, but I decided to put it out there early, before it is completely finished, so that it might be of some use to those people wanting to sign up for the MBBL league. The MBBL will be playtesting the new Vault rules that will become official in 2007.

So, if you follow the link below, you should find the beginnings of a guide to using the PBeMBB Tool:

http://pbembbguide.mysite.wanadoo-membe ... index.html

It is still a bit of a work in progress, and many of the advanced functions still need to be added, but it is a start.

If anyone spots any errors, typos, grammatical issues or muddled/inconsistant wording, please feel free to contact me my email or PM. :) I will also be putting together an FAQ section at some point, so any queries for this section would be most welcome.

EDIT: The guide is down at the moment. I don't have access to the original file at the moment, but as soon as I do I will put it back up again. Sorry for any problems this causes.

Cheers
Joe / Naz

Looks nice, but I'm pretty sure there allready was a "manual"made by Musta Surma on the Pbembbl. You could have saved yourself a lot of work had you used it! :wink:
