I have read a variation on this advice many. many times here: "The ultimate choice of force field should be based on your reading and understanding of their derivation and known applications/limitations, all of which comes from the literature. Choose the one that you think is most sound :)"
I am probably not the only person here who is attempting to learn and use molecular dynamics software for the first time. I am probably not the only person here who is trying to simulate a molecule for which there is NO published molecular dynamics study. Sure, it's a protein in water. Is that enough to tell me which force field(s) will give me a representative result, or not? I search through abstracts in molecular dynamics at the library, but I never seem to find articles which are general enough. It would be very helpful if someone more knowledgeable in the field could point us newcomers at a review article, even a somewhat dated one, which surveys the use and utility of a few different force fields. It would be a good starting point.
