Sorry but I fail to see how "guide on how to be duke" or "guide on how to be ruler" qualifies as to helping newcomers.
I am totally for helping newcomers, as ooc as possible if necessary, but someone that is a general or a banker wouldn't qualify for the "newcomer" adjective anymore. Just Marshals and Lords can still be somewhat useful for those who joined the game since little time.
Furthermore, the position-specific guides as they have been made up to now are meant for people that are already in some position, I don't understand how knowing how being general works would help you becoming general more early. Yes perhaps you can say one thing or two that shows knowledge of the military affairs, but is that really what people looks at when picking a new general?
