Very disappointing
I had high hopes for this strategy guide. Previous game guides for Rome and Shogun Total war had been produced by Prima games and they were pretty terrible, comprising of little more than a list of stats for the various units in the game. The only decent guide was that for the original Medieval Total war, produced by Brady games. The latter was an excellent guide with detailed stategies for each faction as well as a brekdown as to how the battle engine actually worked. When I saw that Brady games were producing the game guide for Medieval 2, I thought it would be of similar quality, but sadly it is not, and follows the rather bland recitation of stats of the Prima game guides. I think whoever wrote this was just going through the motions and made no real effort at all.

a horrible guide for a wonderful game
i have been playing the total war series since the shogun and and altough i did not need it i bought this guide to get some additional information. it turned out to be completley useles, there is nothin in it the information that it gives you certainley does not exceed the ones in the games manual when u see it u would say it is huge thats true it is huge but what is inside is only the unit informatin and unit stats u get in the game thay simply copy pasted it. it has a huge list of family treats and ritunies and nothing else. there is no detailed information on the main aspects of the game like castles cities armorers srategies on factions or battlefield tactics and there is no information about more smaller things like guilds events and new world. you can find out much greater information by playing the game and reading the game manual which comes with the game. it is so reclessley preaperd that even the unit stats and information which is all this guide is about is wrong in many places and they even forget to put a whole factions units; timurids. so really dont spend your money on this guide there is nothing in it for you or for anyone but just it is another way to get money for the publishers. it really doesnot wort it.

A strategy guide minus the strategy
This book doesn't deserve the tital of strategy guide as it contains very little in the way of this. It says that it has a huge section on all the units but they miss out a whole factions units and get pictures wrong. This happens quite a lot and to cap it all even the unit entry on the back is incorrect!!
