Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Very good, particularly for a newb to game
Review: Compared to most strategy guides, which are usually just re-hashes of material in the manual, this guide is chock full of strategies and interesting info about a very deep game. Some of the strategies will be obvious to seasoned vets, but for newcomers they'll be a great help.

There are more than 200 pages, most in very small print meaning the author has crammed a lot of material in. There are errors here and there, probably a result of the book being written before the game was 100% complete. But all in all a good effort.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Very well-done strategy game
Review: This game not only has great graphics and music, it's also very challenging! The first few times you play you'll get tottally worked by the computer even if you're very used to the genre(even on the easiest level).

The big debate: is it master of magic II or not? Well, the main difference is that in AOWII you don't bother with food, and there is less room for expansion. But AOW also has many other elements that MOM doesn't have, such as quests to appease Gods, Wizards towers, and stronger AI.
Some gamers hate the fact that there's no ramdom map, but there are plenty of senarios, and trust me you WON'T ever play them all unless you tottally have no life.
