Very very hard to find. Perhaps the best computer game strategy guide ever written. I thought I'd pass this along since I already have a copy.  http://s1.amazon.co.uk/exec/varzea/ts/exchange-glance/Y03Y6950255Y1538710/qid=991103846/sr=1-1/ref=z_ob_qs/026-7142372-2141247 Used, for a lousy $6.00. Can't go wrong.

Then the double solids return, and he's back to 30. And keeps his left turn signal on the whole time? Hitler was much worse than that guy" -- overheard on plastic.com

I have several, including the TAW/ADF strat guide, and it is pretty good, but I still go back to the EF2000 strat guide for allot of simming info, as it is really a univeral guide. I have it sitting beside me right now!
You have the TAW/F22 Strat Guide??? You lucky devil!!! I'd give my right arm for that. Well..okay...maybe just a pinky.  Seriously, that's even harder to find than the EF2000 strat guide. And I hear it's even more comprehensive than its predecessor! Zhukov

Yes, that is a bit disappointing. I was hoping it would have covered the TAW campaign system in more depth. And you're right, the EF2000 Strat Guide is chock full of EXCELLENT general advice on combat aviation tactics. Zhukov quote: Originally posted by Hornet1: Yep, I have both the EF2000 and ADF/TAW Strategy Guides. They both are very good, but personally, I prefer the EF2000 Strat Guide as it seems to apply to just about any sim (well, sections of it anyway). What is particularly disappointing about the ADF/TAW Strat Guide is that there is a VERY limited section on the campaign in TAW....which is really what I wanted most from the guide. BUT, overall, it is a nice addition to my collection.

BTW..that's a great article, Len. Just finished it, and it really conveys the atmosphere of using the innovative AWACS interface.Zhukov -------------------- "Didja ever notice that guy who pulls out right in front of you, then slows down to 30?
