Customer Review: The book Contains very little information about "treaty' and multiplayer stragety and too much on the single player walk thrus. The advice given in the book otherwise was good, I was suprised to find so many "typos" in the book. Guess the editor was on Vacation!
Customer Review: You can get most of the same information from the internet and the official website under forums. Barely mentions MultiPlayer. The walk-thru of the 3 new civs was informative but nothing I did not know from just playing a few times. Some of the numbers were not correct.
Customer Review: Both my partner and I treasure the wealth of information available between the covers of this book. We are making the difficult shift from TV production to game production and it is fascinating to see where other teams and their leaders got things wrong and right. With great examples from a wide... more info
Customer Review: I found the book very helpful. I am something of a newbie to the game. I have played AOE both 1 and 2 for only a couple of months but I found this book a real help in picking up some of the more subtle aspects of the game's dynamics.
Compared to the Inside Moves Edition strategy guide for AOE 2,... more info
Customer Review: This book is decent for the price, it gives nice reference material. Just don't look for a lot of tips and strategies here, especially ones that haven't been tried already.

This is probably the most critical piece of advice I overlooked, a piece which this book covers well. There are also good tactics for each culture. I... more info
Customer Review: This guide is fairly useful, although there is a lot of info about factions that I never play. Just a personal preference. Otherwise, this book is useful, especially for strategies and tips on how to win the game.
Customer Review: The book gave what was needed and some more: how to beat each misson with flying colors, detailed descriptions of every civilization, strategies on how to win at multiplayer, and much more. the only down side was that if you buy this the game loses some of its chalenge.
Customer Review: Being a player of AOE III, and having purchased the excellent guide by Sybex, I was expecting the same quality, but no such luck. This guide is almost useless. It doesn't offer the detail to the different civs and does not give enough detail on stats for the different military units. It... more info
Customer Review: I just recently got this book and have already been able to make professsional quality maps. I used to wonder how maps I played on the zone such as Castle Blood were made. But thankx to this map I found out how. It tells you how to use all of the options and features of the scenaio creator as well... more info
