Four ways to win, but only 3 are mentioned? + First Impressions

The Heira-whats-it-con's "basic concept" page says that there are 4 ways to win, but it only describes 3: Conquest, Diplomacy, and the Spell Of Mastery.

What's the 4th, and why isn't it listed?

I'm a little disappointed in the amount of tips available in the encyclopedia. I was hoping for more tutorials. Yes, I played around with the beta, but I still feel like I'm staring at a base of a learning cliff. The game doesn't feel approachable at all. How about an in-game overlay to the GUI that shows what everything means? Didn't GC2 have that? I'll try it when I'm less tired.

I also had a DirectX crash-to-desktop when I tried to alt-tab out and back in. Otherwise I'd be using exact names for things in this post.

The fourth is the Master Quest (through Adventure research and doing a long quest chain).

If you're looking for tips, make sure that you have Janusk's advice enabled in the options and recruit him when he appears at the start of the game.

This issue reappeared with some ATI cards after fixing another issue. For the time being, running in windowed mode should allow you to switch in and out smoothly (windowed mode at your desktop resolution will look just like fullscreen, you just won't be able to edge-scroll). We've got people working to get it sorted ASAP.

I don't have an ATI card... I have an nVIDIA card. If it happens again, I'll do a full bug report.

Please do. We've been unable to reproduce alt-tab crashes on any nVidia cards we have any longer so for any cases of that happening we need all the info we can get.
