There is much in those linked threads that is directly applicable to writing a strategy guide. It just needs to be distilled down into it's essence without all the extra stuff in the posts.
After that I would think that Overcoming Parity in the Middle Ages, The Importance of Geography, and AI Mechanics are good places to continue with.

I already 'cut and pasted' all these threads (in MS Word), but the result still has the individual 'flavor' of the different writers. As I said before, somebody should take this raw material and put it in a better English.
BTW, vulture's document about the early game is a masterpiece. It contains most of the above stuff.
