Here's a tutorial that covers exactly what you're looking for. It might
be more helpful than what you're talking about (although I can't guess
what that is). It starts with Eclipse, Tomcat, JSPs and servlets.
http://www.javahotchocolate.com/wtp-tutorials/wtp-tutorial.html
I hope that's not too basic for you (you said you're new).
Then, once that's under your belt, tackle the articles about JSF
including RichFaces, Facelets, templates, etc. under "Other Tutorials" at
http://www.javahotchocolate.com/
When you have questions on how to use Eclipse, come to this forum (which
is what you've done). When you have questions more related to web tools
in Eclipse (using Tomcat with Eclipse, writing JSPs, JSF, web.xml, etc.)
you'll get the best help from the Eclipse web tools forum.
Best of luck.

What you're trying to start out with is notoriously complex, especially
matching just the right libraries. Maven can be helpful (but I hate it
personally especially the artifacts in this particular area of web
programming). Tutorials on this topic go stale very fast and become less
than helpful.
The tutorial you've chosen looks like good stuff.
Another place to get great tutorials that work is http://www.vogella.de.
I probably can't help with the specifics of the monstermash stuff, but
I'd be happy to answer any questions that arise from my tutorials.
Best of luck,
Russ
