Star Wars Rebellion is the perfect game for any Star Wars fan who has ever wondered what it would be like to send a fleet of Imperial Star Destroyers into action or a regiment of Wookie troops into combat. This game of galactic conquest is similar to most others of the genre except that it unfolds in real time. Rebellion is a very large and time-consuming game, as well, with a minimum of 100 different systems to explore and control.

In this guide, you'll find:
  ° Specific strategies for maximizing your production capacity.

  ° In-depth advice for using your key personnel and how to recruit.

  ° An overview of the military factor in the game.

  ° Why Special Forces are important and how to use them effectively.

  ° Suggestions for exploring and searching the galaxy for enemies.

  ° Specific advice for playing as the Rebel Alliance and as the Empire.

  ° A basic rundown of tips for the game's tactical fleet combat system.

  ° Some general game-playing guidelines.

With this guide, we'll give you the information you need to assume control of the galaxy. Rebellion's unique tactical combat system can be a challenging one, especially since the interface is somewhat confusing. We'll give you an overview of how this system works and offer some suggestions for winning these dramatic ship-to-ship engagements. We'll also offer a few general game-playing tips, like how to keep from going insane from listening to C-3PO talk on and on.

Of course, in an open-ended strategy game like Rebellion, there are always several different ways to play and win. But once you read through this guide, we feel confident that you will have the basic strategic and tactical advantages you need to take over the galaxy quickly and efficiently.
