On the Microsoft Word question, it does work, I just have to create the templates which I will do soon.
and as for the handbook, I got some of the ability ideas from various other sources that I had listed in version 1 but forgot in version 2. Scrapyard Armory's Mechwarrior Quirks, and Time of War's list of pilot abilities helped in crafting some of the individual and command abilities I have in the handbook. But for the most part all of Strike Force's rules, abilities, cards and other templates are made by me and tested for about a year with my local Battletech group.
