Summary: great 1999-04-08
Comment: it's written in a first-person viewpoint, and it's a bit confusing at first, but if you follow what they're doing, everything turns out fine. that, paired with the amazing price I got it for (one cent) makes it awesome

Summary: if u see this title, run away 1998-12-24
Comment: This guide blows. Those three words pretty much sum up the whole thing. Basically it shows u the maps for all the scenarios, and gives a detailed description of all the units.(fun to look at in your spare time, but not worth 20 bucks!) For the most part, the cheat codes are the only good thing. But if u need those codes to play the game, then u should take up another hobby.

Summary: Okay. 1998-06-06
Comment: The book is not helpful. It's written like you are a character in the game. The only good thing it has is the cheat codes. But you can just go to search under Warcraft Codes, and get a few puds while you're at it.

Summary: This book is simply a re written instruction manual. 1998-04-16
Comment: This book is satisfacory, but not that great. Most of the book is simply a reprint of the instruction manual with more statisitics- it gives very little information on how, when, or why to use the units and buildings. Also, the mission walkthroughs are written like a story, so they are difficult to use and basically just describe one successful mission attempt. It says nothing of how the enemy will probably build- it just writes as though the enemy will do the same things everys time. It includes mission maps, but these are but the default settings and the infinite variations make them worthless. It also includes the cheat codes, but these can easily be found elsewhere, including on the CD in the 'Readme' file.
