Added two new hopefully helpful images "Tritanium Limited, and Dilithium Limited" - if you see these along a section of a Build Order in the Strategy tabs that means that at that point in the strategy you will have close to no funds of that type and be very vulnerable. I.E. even if you don't use that strategy, look at it to see when your opponent who uses it will be weakest, and destroy those miners!

Added Blade's blank button templates for avatar images, build buttons, and normal buttons in TGA format.
Button Templates - The Hitchhiker's Guide to Fleet Operations
Note that the avatar images for specific factions are not from the devs, but I will work on getting those that way the colors match perfectly

Awesome Dom, thanks. I was actually gonna suggest this at some point myself. 
I think the second link should maybe be called build button templates though. atm it just says button, and I was not sure which was which.

Done! Thanks
. If you can think of any more templates or things that would be useful I'll of course put them up there too

Added a new chunk of information into the guide: some sort of "timer" in each of the Special Notes sections of the Build Orders. Basically this gives you the amount of time it takes to reach a critical part of the early buildup. This cut off point of this build up time is done so that you won't have any extraneous variables (such as how long it takes you to get to an expansion).

The Unit Value Calculator has been updated to Version 2!
It now has the ability to calculate...:
Offensive Value
Defensive Value
System Value
Total Energy
Energy Regeneration Rate
Subsystem HP
Shot Delays
Individual weapon damage.
Only things missing now are shield and hull regeneration rates, which are a bit more tricky.
