4.0 out of 5 stars Invaluable guide for campaign walkthroughs and mech stats, December 22, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Mech Assault (Prima's Official Strategy Guide) (Paperback)

While I prefered to go through each campaign on my own initially, there frequently comes that point of "what am I doing wrong here?" The guide was the most useful during the "Thor on the Rocks" campaign, which is one of the most difficult ones. There are secret caves of salvage I would have never found on my own, and certain tactics to follow to enable to to finish the campaign in one piece. The battle tactics and weapons overview in general is extremely useful.

You also get more complete info on the ALL the mechs in the game. The guide with the game disc only gives basic info on some of them, with no info on Ragnarok, the mech you use in the final campaign. You also find out that finishing the last campaign unlocks Ymir, a variant of Ragnarok you can use in multiplayer games.

Anybody who really enjoys this game and is a serious player should get this guide.
