Shame, evidently I have been prevented from responding to your request asking for the manual but, well I'm looking through the manual PDF, it seems fine. If you still want it, try looking over at (edit) TWCENTER, in their dedicated paradox games section or PM me. I can't post a link to help you i'm afraid, as it is apparently in contravention of the rules here. But seeing as there is no real tutorial it's kind of essential for newcomers. Even a veteran Rome player like myself needed to look up certain things.

I found it no problem, Jace was kind enough to direct us. It's just a few hours from release, and may be obsolete soon, but I've tried to clarify it.
 
Manual available on GG.

Damn, that was quick. Just checked, to make sure they didn't slip up and release the game a little early, and it wasn't there. Have you been stalking GG? ;)
