Book Summary Information

Book Reviews of Total Annihilation: Kingdoms: Official Strategy Guide

Book Review: Great for 'Play the Adventure'; weak on intricate detail
Summary: 3 Stars

For instance, sighting range, hit points, and weapon damage for each fighting unit are listed, but other details like unit velocity or weapon range are not.

The book spends a lot of space repeating what is already in the game and in the game manual. I was hoping for more information about how unit experience affects performance, why certain units cannot effectively battle other units (like Verunan war ships vs. Sky Knights), and other fine points of strategy and game design.

The book does include strategy pointers for multi-player campaigns and computer opponents; and the book is very well-written, laid out, and easy-to-read. However, I would only recommend spending the sixteen dollars if you get stuck on the 'Adventure'. Get the rest of your info on the TA web site or on newsgroups.
