Short intro; I work at a board game store and most of our customer base focuses on Euro games. While SotM has been doing very well I get frequent questions about how to set the game up and where to start. Apparently the amount of choice available is overwhelming when you are used to just sitting down and following a rulebook to start your game. To help with this I have been working on a starter guide for SotM that I can hand out for people just purchasing SotM as well as keep a copy in our demo game.
Having successfully typed the guide up I am looking for more input on it; preferably constructive although if you think something is not good tell me please. As time goes on I am hoping to expand what I have written as well as incorporate other forum goers work with their permission. Guide here

Sentinels of the Multiverse (SotM) is a collectible card game
I'm not sure if you mean a "cooperative card game" as collectible card games are Magic the Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh, etc.
The only other thing a noticed is the division of cards. One-Shots, Persistant, and Power cards.
You list off Persistant cards as being "Equipment, Ongoing, and Relic". Relics in hero decks are also equipment cards. Powers are also listed on Ongoing or Equipment cards. Infact some cards even have persistant effects on the same cards that give a power. Such as Locallized Hurricane and Staff of Ra.
Fixed this! As far as the other bit you mentioned having re-read that section I see exactly where you are coming from and will be trying to reword it. Thank you for the feedback!
