This is one of the greatest strategy guides for a agame that I have read as of yet. It makes a difficult game seem extremly simple.

Not only does this guide describe all missions, but also gives you helpful infor on all weapons and people in the game. If you are haveing difficulty with this game then this book is a must have. But just be sure to READ the book.

4.0 out of 5 stars excellent help, may be deserve four stars and half., August 20, 2002

By	Zeyad Morcos "Zeyad" (Fall River, MA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I like playing the Commados series, and I found the Strategy guide for "behind enemy lines very helpful" which forced me to buy this one.
It starts with basic introduction to each Commanndos followed by description of weapons, items. Here I wished that the strategy has included the hot keyes, so you may save time looking back at the manual.
Afterwards, each mission is descriped in details, with pictures, but they are not as great as Behind Enemy Lines, but enough. The information provided are very helpful and essential to finish the mission. Using the appropriate commandos, distracting, climbing, hiding, and locating the bonus pictures.
Occasinally I found myself unable to follow the advices provided, and must invent my own "temporary" strategy for that section, such in white death mission.
I think it is necessary to read the strategy provided in this book before playing each mission, so you can obtain a general sense and idea, but you may need to create your own strategy, occasinally.

With the little help of this book, you can reach EVERY bonus missions without losing any one of them. Of course, you can try it hard by yourself. But, I bet, you need this at least once ...... So ......
