Hey, it'll be good to get a list of units, wonders, etc. for $16.00 a week before the game ships.
That seems to be such a waste of good money. You will get the same thing with the game manual.

Well if the book is being published on release date that means they have had to have the book ready for editing and publishing about six weeks ago. Firaxis was still changing stuff so that means if the strategy guide writer has even played the game it was an old beta version with the wrong numbers. No way is it worth the money.

Having in this board Velocyrix, one of the best man in show for writing Strategy Guides for SMAC, I'd suggest to wait the man and see.
He already announced his interest for a Civ III similar effort and, while the last guide version for SMAC come a bit too late IMHO, his work was excellent since the first release.
Vel is our strategy analyst, have faith in him (and in some others great players who deserve credits fro the help they give to Vel).

Funny you should mention Vel, because I think with the new gameplay concepts in CivIII, he (being a 'builder' of sound mind and judgement) will probably be having a blast with this game.
I can also forsee him getting a guide together for CivIII, and perhaps, even making some real money thins time around for his efforts.
Two lines from an anonymus reader. Ya gotta wonder who wrote it. I've pre-ordered for semi-professional reasons and will be glab to answers questions on it here.

Disgusting! A payed review before the book is printed seems really awful to me.
I really feel the need for starting a boycott campaign ... Nah, too much effort.

FYI -- the strategy guide release date has been pushed out to October 31st according to ebworld's web site. I was looking forward to being able to do some bed time reading before the game came out, but ahh, no luck.
