Don't waste your timed with this book,
By A Customer
This review is from: Star Trek Starfleet Command II: Empires at War Official Strategy Guide (Paperback)
I bought this book thinking that it would supplement the instruction guide well. I was completely dissapointed. The strategy guide, like the manual, is well written, but doesn't contain as much useful information as it should. Much of the content is straight from the manual, some of it being word for word. I was hoping for some detailed information on the fighters, but they pretty much just gave the generic "average, above average, etc." comments like they did for the rest of the ships for each race (both in the manual as well as again, in the strategy guide). It's sad because I can go and yank this information from a text document in one of the installation directories. I was also hoping for a detailed information sheet for all the ships like the fold out sheet found with the first game. The strategy guide had this but for the few ships that I've looked up from memory, only 1 has had the right information. The others had incorrect information which makes the one useful thing in the book, useless. Some of the strategies and training exercises are decent, giving this book the one star I rated it. Overall, you are better off sticking with the manual and getting any other information you need from the internet.

Wasn't good to begin with, and now its almost useless,
By A Customer
This review is from: Star Trek Starfleet Command II: Empires at War Official Strategy Guide (Paperback)
This book had a few good things, like some training activities and basic strategies, but much of the info was wrong like how the plasma I's work or some of the ship stats in the back of the book. Now that the game has went through so many revisions to fix bugs and balance the game, the book is completely lacking or incorrect for most of it's information. No info on Plasma D's since they are new, and the ship information in the back is even more incorrect. Don't waste your time with this one. Wait for an updated version.

I just bought this book and I am very disappointed. This is not nearly as good as the SFC1 strategy guide and has no mission walk throughs. I understand this was written in a week, and it shows. I have also found errors in the appendix, and I can't recommend this guide to anyone.
