Our store got in a demo copy of TI a few months back, and now we've got several players of the game, but none of them really are that familiar with the rules. I have to admit, as much as I enjoy playing the game, since we opened the store 5-1/2 years ago, I just haven't had the time to commit to TI, and haven't played it during that time (I'd guess the last time I played was possibly even 1st edition). Are there any helpful site or printouts that I can use to help the new players get a quicker grasp of the rules, turn order, combat, etc. to help speed along their first few games?

has a lot of good helpful quick sheets you can print out for newer players to look at for quick reference. Also you can get a lot of helpful quick answers from all the TI3 players over at the www.TI3wiki.org/forum/YaBB.pl

Thanks. I'll take a peek and figure out which ones seem to have the best info and print them out for the players. Definitely have to check out the wiki.
