Help Needed

I need help to get Book of Armies out quickly.

We need to change the part of format that I used to write the book.
I can't figure out to make a box/table on this site, and so my representative sample below is not as easy to understand as I'd like.

Basically, much of that book consists of d20 tables, each of suitable opponents of a particular army.

However, each entry has two boxes of information that need to be reorganized into one.
Currently, one box has a single number, the other has weapon and possibly horse stats, often in two lines:

[tr][td]19 4d6 spear & shield, 10,
Lance, Charger (6d6 [5])


The format that is being used is more like:

[tr][td]spear & shield (19) 4d6
Lance, Charger (6d6 [5])



We have, literally, hundreds--gee, maybe a thousand!--of these entries, divided among 34 page-long armies, plus a whole bunch of smaller samples. All need to be converted.

I am seeking volunteers who can do this NOW and QUICKLY (that is, be done in a week).

Doing a small part and getting it done on time is approximately 1,000,000% better than not getting a large part done on time.
And if you start small and do it quick, you can come back for more! :)

Payment: A free copy of the book, my gratitude, and the thanks of every player waiting for these books!!
If one person does more than minimum, the rewards will be greater.

Please, if you wish to volunteer, contact me at greg@glorantha.com with "BoA Volunteer" in the subject line.

Friends,

I need help to get Book of Armies out quickly.

The muster has been successful, and I have all the helpers that I need now.
NO MORE FOR NOW!
Thanks to all!
This should save us a week, at least, on the production.

Wow, the volunteer response has been great.
Next time I need a squire I'll pick one of you guys.

I would say this has knocked off at least a week--it's brought it at lest a week sooner to completion.
