This excellent guide to LucasArts' new Star Wars: Rebellion explains the ins and outs of the game's complex interface while providing key insight into the strategies needed to achieve galactic supremacy. Section topics include resource management, characters and missions, shipyards and fleets, and mines and refineries. The guide explains each ship type in detail as well as the various types of missions available to your personnel. A thorough appendix lists all of the game's key data, from ship and weapon strengths to facility capabilities. So if you're having trouble taking over the galaxy or if you simply can't find your way around Rebellion's interface, you'll definitely want to get your hands on this book. --Michael Ryan

Jesus saves.... problems remain. Anyone with half a brain for strategy games and half an hour of playing Rebellion under their belt could have written this book. I've read and used Prima books before, and this was VERY disappointing by comparison. The stat charts in the appendices are decent, but these can be found for free online. Nowhere was there anything explaining HOW these stats work. Don't waste your money on obvious advice like, "Make sure you keep your Facilities busy."

Zack's Rating: 39%

This worthless strategy guide won't help you: I guarantee it. Weak strategies means Honeywell's copy of Star Wars Rebellion must of had a few bugs, because these don't work! Get tips on this game somewhere else.

This review is from: Star Wars Rebellion: Prima's Official Strategy Guide (Paperback)

This guide was good, but definately not great. The guide's saving grace was the broad spectrum of strategies it lists, giving you some freedom, not the usual 'go here, do this' kind of thing. 'Course, it is a strategy game.... Anyway, the book helped me in some ways, like the info in the appendixes, but otherwise was just a review course. My advice: Buy it if you really like Star Wars or are in a bind in the game, but if you're doing fine, this book won't help you much.
