The best way to learn or improve your Brood War game is...

to buy this excellent book. I know how useful it is to watch replays, learn from friends etc. but this guide will provide a handy walkthrough, that will help you overcome the Single-player missions (that help you master the units and overcome the basics of the strategy) and then the Multy-player intense action. It provides excellent tips on how to beat each race (what strats to use against them) and even extras such as campaign editor and unit stats help. I for one didn't regret buying this examplary product, and I bet neither will you. It's cheap and useful, just what a SC gamer wants.And I bet most of us are striving for SC perfecction, right? It's one of the most popular games of today, you know, if you don't play it, when you walk on the street people will point at you and say "hey look, there goes that guy that doesn't play SC, whatta case! When my son got all Fs in school, I said, "that's ok, you won the SC tourney and that's all that matters. Screw graduation ;)."."Jokes and metaphor aside, I can assure you that if you really want to improve your SC skill, buy this book, it's well worth it and so much more... I know you probably play SC just for fun and not to be a progamer and travel to Korea etc. (neither do I), but it's more fun to squish others then get owned, you are happy instead of frustrated with just a little diligence and this game is a fine choice if you want to spend those endless-sleepless nights in front of the Computer ;).

Stuck on a Single Player Mission in Broodwar?

Are you stuck on a single player mission in Starcraft: Broodwar? If so then this book is for you, unless of course you want to degrade yourself and cheat. I don't recommend using this book as a 'walkthrough' just use it for those missions you have tried and tried again without success. The strategies provided are clear and easy to understand. Even if you don't follow them exactly you can still get some good ideas as to how to go about the missions.The book worked for me, and unless you're absolutely the worst Starcraft player ever it will probably work for you.

A nice piece of work.

Great piece of work is all this book is! Great book, great strategies, and some nice ways to get you started on your campaign editing

Cool Book

It's a very cool book, if you get bored it will keep you busy for a long time. It also has a lot of good unit tricks and mission stuff. It also told me a cool code called RADIOFREEZERG that lets you listen to funny music. It has a lot of spelling errors though, like a Dart Archon (Dark Archon) and it called overlords overminds sometimes.

Ok

it ok cover the games but still cheater can beat the game without it just for real players!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
