SMana v64: a new Manual for every season

A completely rewritten Game Manual arrives: fewer interface instructions, more rules, choices and steps to understand how to manage a season properly.

Version 64 introduces the new SMana Game Manual, completely redesigned as the instruction booklet of a board game. It is not a sequence of buttons to press, but a guide explaining what to observe, which decisions to make and how each choice connects to the next.

The Manual starts from the manager's daily rhythm and follows the entire season: understanding the squad, studying the opponent, preparing lineup and tactics, managing fitness and rotation, developing players, working the market and facing league matches, cups and unexpected events.

The goal is to make SMana easier to learn without making it easier to play. The rules become clearer while strategy remains in the manager's hands: every squad, every calendar and every World still requires different choices.
