Strategy

This guide (which I found at a half-price bookstore) is very helpful. I use it often. My copy of MOO II did not include a printed manual, so I wanted a some sort of hard copy. There are a few minor mistakes in the printing, but is a great guide!

Master of Orion II: Battle at Antares is a very difficult strategy game intent on making the colonization of the galaxy as realistic as possible. The Strategy Guide assists you in doing just that.

The main force of influence in the Strategy Guide is the explanation of every little bitty thing inside of the game. The technologies for Research are completely explained in detail, in addition to suggestions being given for what to choose and at what time to choose them. The alien "Picks" option that allows you to customize aliens is completely explained and suggestions for alien creation are put forth. However, the writers have a bent for challenging themselves, which I highly suggest to veteran players of the game.

All in all, it explains the entire campaign necessary to bring down those pesky Antarans and how to best keep a Space Eel from spawning. Give it a peek sometime. You won't be disappointed.

I read this book AFTER I failed the NY bar exam the first time around. This book was very helpful in helping to understand the MBE and the best method for studying. I felt much more confident and less stressed taking the bar again this past February, and I am surprised how much of that I can attribute to what I learned in Mr. Talamo's book! I highly recommend that ANYONE taking the MBE read this book. Then spend a few days using his techniques & see the difference! I plan to give this book as a gift to others taking the MBE too!

Best book ever read on the taking of the MBE. Not only does Talamo tell you what to study, he tells you HOW. Ive read dozens of books on taking the MBE. Talamo is by far the best. He explains how to tackle the test itself. He has an easy to follow strategy for focusing on the most important areas covered on the MBE, and how these areas should be handled. If you have mountains of books from your bar review course and don't know what to do with all of it, this book is a must! Im a repeater for this bar exam and this is the first book I have ever read that is helping me learn how to study for this exam. This book is one of those you will read from cover to cover over and over again. It has given me a plan for taking this exam. As a result, Im not as stressed out over how Im going to learn all this material. Instead, I am learning how to focus on the most important stuff and learn it really well. Talamo explains how it is a waste of time to try and learn everything fairly well. He shows how you will do better on the exam by knowing just a few key areas extremely well. I can't say enough about this book. It has taken my anxiety level down a couple of notches, and given me a feeling of confidence that I CAN pass this exam!

Long attributed to the Byzantine Emperor Maurice, the "Strategikon" became the practical handbook for Byzantine army organization, covering everything from basic training to tactical planning against the armies of different nations and to basic strategy and diplomacy.

A young Byzantine man of good birth was expected to learn from childhood how to use the bow, ride a horse, then do both, while also training to fight on foot with sword, and then train to do it all in armor, and be capable of making long rides or long marches in full kit before being deemed fully qualified for service in the army.

Although heavily dependent upon mercenary forces, the Byzantines did not forget the lessons of the latter Western Roman Empire -- along with the mercenaries, the Byzantines established a hard core of well-trained native soldiers who acted as a unifying force around which the mercenaries gathered.

The "Strategikon" gives detailed marching orders for a variety of column types, orders of battle, the fighting styles of different enemies of the Byzantines, etc. It is this detail which helps the textual critics to analyze whether or not the Emperor Maurice himself wrote the book, or if it was written at his request, or under his dictation. Whoever the author, it is undoubted that he was a skilled tactician and an experienced veteran officer of high rank. In any case, "Strategikon" was for generations one of THE handbooks of military theory for the Byzantines, one which enabled them to maintain their independence (even in exile) for centuries after the book was written, and one which still has value for "Maurice's" comments on the need to train recruits thoroughly in ALL of the types of fighting which they might need to do.

This is my first exposure to Maurice's handbook, so I cannot write a critical review of Mr. Dennis' work. Absent my ability to critique the translation, I give the book five stars as a combined score for Mr. Dennis and the long-departed Roman author.

Mr. Dennis' translation is very readable and smooth. The glossary was valuable while reading, and the index has been useful as I'm going over some specific topics again. The introductory material provided enough tutorial that I could enjoy the text without confusion. I appreciated the footnotes that give the Latin commands for directing troops. I find the "Bibliographical Notes" more useful than the typical stark list of references.

The only thing that I could really wish for are footnotes detailing variants in the surviving texts. While that would satisfy my curiosity, it could serve only as a distraction for those not interested in minutiae. One can't mark the book down for personal quirks. :-)

As for the text itself, it's a fascinating journey through the mind of a seasoned Roman general. Written to train the Empire's top military leaders, the well-organized handbook presents the material thoroughly without repetition. The plain, no-nonsense language keeps the material accessible to the non-erudite. The fact that it influenced warfare for hundreds of subsequent years comes as no surprise.

I am lucky to have the privilege of working with Steven in his latest business venture.

This book is truly amazing. Steven lays out step by step methods to help anyone succeed in whatever they set out to do. If you have to find a way to apply the principles in your life to truly benefit from the book. There are neat little excersises at the end of each session to help you do this.

Everyone needs a mentor to learn the tricks of success and Steven is one of the best out there.

Steven K. Scott has written an excellent book. Actually this is more than a book, it reads like a series of one-on-one sessions with Scott himself.

I have the audio tape set he did for Nightingale-Conant as well.

Everyone needs a mentor and Steven Scott is outstanding. You will learn everything you need to know to reach your dreams. This is no ordinary book, it is an outstanding book. Must reading for all who want to reach their dreams.

I found it to be fulfilling for my continued development of my business. The book gives one a straightforward approach to "what you can to for you Business". I am using the book as a guide and sharing the information with my team. It has been very successful for both my team and myself. I recommend this book to all that are seeking to build their business and their people.

I work in a small company, and the concepts I learned from this book have helped me as much as anything I learned in college. I use the ideas on an almost daily basis, the examples are easy to follow, and most importantly, I've seen results!

Written especially for those responsible for teaching students who have difficulty learning, The MI Strategy Bank by Ellen Arnold (Director of Arncraft, a company dedicated to educational consulting) looks at eight different types of intelligence shared among human beings, from musical-rhythmic, to bodily-kinesthetic, to logical-mathematical intelligence. For each type of natural intelligence at which a person may excel, there are special strategies that can be utilized to apply that intelligence to learning how to solve other types of problems. For example, young people with a keenness for music can learn to create a song for number facts or tap math facts to a rhythm when learning math, among many other possible strategies. The MI Strategy Bank is recommended as being a first-rate supplementary educational resource for classroom instruction.

This quote from the back cover of the book, "The MI Strategy Bank" sums up the author's beliefs. Dr. Arnold expands on the Howard Gardner theory of multiple intelligences--the part of your brain that you use the most in learning new tasks. These include musical, visual, kinesthetic, interpersonal, intrapersonal, mathmatical, nature & linguistic. She begins each section by relating a real-life experience, and then proceeds to lay out characteristics & strategies for learning in reading, writing, and math; how-to's on developing your particular strengths; and also info on conflict-resolution. Her outlines can be easily adapted to lesson plans for teachers or as creative ideas for parents in home use. Emphasis is on the fact that this style of teaching is for anyone(she has worked with people from 3 to 63!)...it can be applied in any setting, such as school, or for the adult in the workplace, when encountering new demands. This book features clear, articulate language in a simple, direct style and includes a glossary of terms, basic overview, and thorough bibliography. This is fascinating to read, and thrilling to put into action. The "Bank"--this book--has the investments needed that will allow you to empower your student or yourself to tap into all your abilities.

Even though this book was written two years ago and Microsoft has since released two versions after the one this book was written for, the book is still quite useful. Taking you from the simple act of taxiing around the airport, to IFR navigation and low visibility landings, the information included in this book is usable with just about any version of MS Flight Simulator. Highly recommended.

The book covers many additional information on flight. The two chapters on flight basics and radio navigation are even more comprehensive and clear than the new help in FS95, including some mathematics explanations. The only weakness is missing description on aerobatics and new scenery. But bear in mind, it is written for 5.1 version primarily. Anyway, the information is very usable to new FS pilot. If you want to buy a book for FS 5.1 or even FS95, I strongly advice you to buy this one. No doubt, it is good, much much better than the new edition

This Strategy Guide is great because:

1) It gives information how to create the best party.

2) What skills to give to your characters.

3) A chapter about the monsters in the game including lists of
the monsters in the game.

4) A chapter about the items in the game including lists of the
items in the game.

5) Two chapters which reveal all the secrets of the game (So
,if you want to play a fair game, this guide is not for you!).

I give this guide 5 stars because it helped me to play the game.

it helped me a lot with the game...so if you need help with MMIX then it's a good buy!
