Average Rating:
Rating: - All in all, a good buy
A pretty good book with troop placement strategies for each hero type, information on all the artifacts, maps and strategies for each of the scenarios, etc. My main caveat is that the book is not in color, but the only thing that really affects is the map pictures, where it's hard to tell one type of terrain from another. Another annoyance is that the pictures of all the maps are rather small, which makes it even harder to take a good look at it easily. However, these are the only two problems I had with the book. That aside, it is well worth the money.
Rating: - This book rocks!!!
The guide gives you walkthrough of the campaign and standard scenarios. It also gives you stats on the heroes, the artifacts and troops, and it gives you troop placement strategies.
