Introduction

As with all things, consider the creation date, and corresponding Rebirth version number, for any guide. Ideally, this will be less significant for Rebirth wiki-based guides since we can all update or add to them as and when we like. That said, it pays to keep that caution in mind when reading things here just as we may when reading elsewhere on the web.
