Editor User-friendly?

[St!gar]

Thank you, coreyh2, for your long and helpful post. It was more than I could ever have hoped for; good stuff.

There isn't really any documentation and terms they use are hard to interpret.

Is there any documentation of any kind included in the editor at all, or did you have to guess it all by yourself? Is it in English?

When you do the enemy AI, how much do you have to script for a simple "pitched battle" -type mission? Is it enough to give it simple guidelines, (e.g. "Defend this City"; "Prioritize killing the hero"), or do you need to guide its every decition by hand?
