I was PLANNING to make one for my game and host it on freewebs with pictures and everything, but I haven't finished the first Chapter of the game yet, so I'm not far enough done to warrant such an action.

Kamau did for his Legion Saga Series, which was made with Rpg Maker 2000.

40 maps...um...I'd think that's medium just slightly on the small side if they were 50x50.

Impressive though...(needs to find a decent village tile set)

I didn't want to make one for my entire game, I like people to at least try to figure out stuff for themselves.  But I thought of releasing a side quest guide for it, since those are harder to find and some people get really annoyed if they miss a lot of side quests.

I'm gonna make one for my game, its gonna be made in power point and have all that crap but it'll be released after I decently start my second game so players can play how I expected them to...unless someone spoils my wish, they would be heartless, cold blooded evil being.

I doubt I will have one for my current game in-production.

Like darkelementwars mentioned, I will like to see players go through the game themselves, then possibly discuss strategy matter if one got stuck.

Though, then again, my game will be pretty simple and straightforward, so I highly doubt someone can get stuck easily..

God...I have over 40 maps, and average out at 2500 squares each (square root that and you'll find it comes out as 50x50) and there is NO WAY that my game is anywhere near finished...I mean, I haven't even got out of the first village, let alone got to the next town. So yeah, I have a particulary big game by your standards.

As of when I've finished it..(perhaps not for a few...er...who are we kidding, years) I may then produce a guide. (hopefully i can keep it less than three inches thick)
