    Hi,

    pap Paper #88ddff
    pwi Paper with 3/7-point imps #ffccff

    sai Stones with a-imps #ffaaaa
    sbi Stones with b-imps #ffaacc
    scn Scanner #ffffcc
    stn Bomber and Vampires without imps #ffcccc

    another upcoming thing that should be added.

    Which hills are you creating FSH for? There's hydra which may be worth including. Binary hydra are most effective on 88, but continuous hydra
    work well on most hills. There's a list here:

    What are the rumors about scanner papers?

    I'd file them with normal paper for now, as there are only a few examples (mostly for the 88 hill), Sneaky, Infiltrator, Gothik and Dubstep.

    For me i only will create fsh for tiny and 94nop, but the script which runs warriors against the fsh can do fsh of all specs. If someone decide to use this benchmark script he can easily create his own fsh.
    If there is a need for i can publish them on my website. But i hva enot enough experience to collect warrior for 88, lp or large hill's

    For hydra i will open this as a class. Everything that boots more than one copy of assaultcode which ist not a replicator ( papaer or silk) is called a hydra.

    Thx John for this hint

    I would not file them with regular papers, especially for benchmarking purposes - the performance profile is too different. I'd say dumping them into "misc" would be a better option.
