1.0 out of 5 stars Panzer General 3D Stragety Guide, January 2, 2000
This review is from: Panzer General 3D Assault Official Strategies & Secrets (Paperback)
I purchased the book and was greatly disapointed. I purchased the book to use the data tables as a means of comparing different units in the game. When I started reading the book I noticed that none of the Soft and Hard Attack values matched the game values for ANY of the units in the book. These factors are the most important numbers to look at when comparing unit info. Why buy a guide book that supplements the rule book if the information is incorrect...not just some or a few of the values but all of them.

I also looked at the walkthroughs of the various campaigns and senarios and these seem to be lacking some depth. If you are looking for anything earth shattering in this guide book in the walkthroughs don't bother. If your looking for unit stats to be accurate and informative you had better just look at the data the game gives you.

My overall ratting is a 1 and would not recommend this book to anyone who loves this game.

1.0 out of 5 stars Great game - pity about the book!, January 2, 2000
This review is from: Panzer General 3D Assault Official Strategies & Secrets (Paperback)
Let me start by saying that I bought this book mostly for the equipment tables. Well, they are all wrong. Even the headings do not compare to those used in the game itself. There has also been equipment omitted from the tables. Also, the number of turns given for most of the scenarios in the campaigns are wrong. The strategies are mostly OK but if, like me, you are buying this book for the equipment tables - don't! Either the authors of the book did not play the game or there was a massive overhaul of the game after the book was written.

1.0 out of 5 stars don't buy this book, August 3, 2000
By 
This review is from: Panzer General 3D Assault Official Strategies & Secrets (Paperback)
There was absolutely nothing hear that gave strategies and/or secrets to Panzer General 3D Assault! The instruction manual that comes w/this game comes w/ a better strategy plan for the tutorial, than any of the strategies listed here. Most strategies are one to three paragraphs long!! Hardly any info. for you to use. Don't buy this book, if you really want it, email me, and I sell you my copy for a buck! Thats about how much its worth! If I could rate this book a minus 1, it still would be over-rated!
