Decent book

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.

Awesome game!

This is an awesome game for anyone who likes constant action...You advance trough the middle ages while making the best military you can. Then with your military you attack your enemy. I suggest this game to everyone. With more than 3000 players online, I think youll like it.It is an awesome gift for anyone.

Absolutely Spiffing!

I must say that I disagree entirely with others who have written a review for this strategy guide. I think that it's great that the author gave so much information on each civilization; that way you can become an expert in one area. His advise is great and it works, and he seems to know a lot about the game. I do, however, agree that he should have written more general tactics, but a lot of the general tactics he explains when writing about the civilizations. His walkthroughs for each campaign and scenario are fantastic and prescise, and if I were you I would buy this guide in an instant.(By the way, I was about in the middle of between expert and novice when I bought this book.)

Fun fun fun

Well, I have to disagree with everyone, this is a good book and Mark is a good guy. That's the bottom line. And why would you buy a guide book if you are already an expert?

Good book.

The first review claims that the Ensemble book is a better guide, not true. I unlike others did purchase both books, and while the Ensemble book was not worth the money, I did learn a few tricks from this one. According to the first review, Mark Walker is some dude, will...just check out how many game strategy books this dude wrote, and iam talking official strategy guides.
