Writing wargame manuals is not a simple task, it's basically similar to technical writing in terms of getting all the details right, though it also benefits from the ability to include historical anecdotes and background and a good writing style. Writing a manual also involves playing the game (usually in a beta state) and getting to know it as well as communicating with the developer and project manager to make sure nothing is missed, so a candidate should be good at communication and be organized enough to keep track of multiple streams of feedback that require integration into the manual draft. This is a paid position, but pay is by project rather than a salary, so please consider if you have the time, knowledge, commitment and discipline required to start and complete a wargame manual before you apply. # K6 M$ @' a; J- P) }8 q N" r
