This Land is Your Land: Maps and Mission Details
The 121-page walkthrough provides exacting detail about each of the game's 15 chapters, with strategies unique to each McCall brother. For example, there are two separate strategies for dealing with a nest of snipers, depending on whether you're playing as Ray or Thomas. Each walkthrough chapter begins with a detailed map of the entire area that lists every objective, hidden weapon, secret scroll, bag of gold and weapon store in the chapter, and the headers for each objective are labeled with the same icons as the ones used on the map for quick and easy reference. And if there's an opportunity to earn an Achievement or Trophy by performing a certain action in a chapter, it's listed in the walkthrough text.

Undiscovered Country: Secrets and Such
The guide ends with a 25-page Secrets, Achievements, and Trophies section that lists every Achievement and Trophy in the game for quick and easy reference. It also presents a gallery of all 89 secret scrolls hidden in the game, with two screenshots for each: one showing the location of the secret and one displaying an image of the artwork that the secret unlocks. It's the ultimate quick-reference guide to everything you'll want to achieve along the dusty road to Juarez.

TRAINING
Both characters have unique strengths and weaknesses. Learn all you can about each of them and their abilities.

WEAPONS
How fast is your shooting iron? And what kind of damage is it going to do? Good questions. Prima has the answers right here.

ALLIES AND ENEMIES
Family or friend, friend or foe. Knowing who's with you and who's against you can count for a lot.

WALKTHROUGH
With maps of every area, complete information on all objectives, and every secret, weapon, and pick up labeled Prima's walkthrough brings you from the war-torn beginning to the last showdown.

MULTIPLAYER
All modes covered, all unlock conditions revealed, and every weapon stat. 'Nuff said.

SECRETS, ACHIEVEMENTS, AND TROPHIES
Total exposure of every Achievement and Trophy, plus all secrets uncovered.

•    49 levels
•    Six mini-games
•    50 comic book-style cut scenes
•    Over 3,500 objects to find

Classic Mode is the core game and includes plenty of bonuses. Eventually Zen dials appear and help boost your score - they’re worth 500 points times the number of Zen dials used. So if you create a path with three Zen dials they each become worth 1,500 points. When you combine that with the multipliers from other bonuses like Chain Reactions you can rack up really high scores.

In Zendurance Mode the Droplitz fall a little faster to start with but don’t speed up over time, so dying is a lot less likely and it’s easier to get high scores. You can also pick which theme you want to play on.

In Power Up Mode you are given a variety of Power Ups (what else?!). These can be used to bomb dials if they’re proving difficult to get rid of. You can also Slow Down the Droplitz or even Freeze the board completely. This gives you a nice ice effect and stops Droplitz falling in for long enough to make some really complex paths. You even get a Power Bomb which can be used to clear the entire board.

Infection Mode is the big boss battle and you’ll need to play though the other modes until you have the skills to unlock it. Once unlocked you compete to clear infected (hard to turn) dials before they take over the board! As the board becomes more infected it tilts, which is kind of sickening but makes sense considering the mode. Bomb and Power Bomb come into their own in this mode as they can now be used to clear the infection. Infection Mode also includes five unique themes.

Sword of the Stars Ultimate Collection

Sword of the Stars: Ultimate Collection is the original Sword of the Stars games and the two expansions Born of Blood and A Murder of Crows.

Sword of the Stars:

It is the year 2405, and human scientists have discovered a new technology, the Node Drive. This is an innovation that will finally allow travel from star to star at speeds faster than light. As mankind is poised on the brink of a new era, tragedy strikes, as the first inter-colony ship is destroyed and Earth is ravaged by an alien force. What was supposed to be the dawning of a new era instead was stymied by a grim, new reality... We are not alone...and we are no longer safe.

• 4 distinct races - Human, Hiver, Tarkas and Liir - each with their own technology advantages and disadvantages.
• A powerful state of the art engine delivers breathtaking graphics and robust gameplay.
• Each race has a unique mode of transport between star systems, creating very different styles of play, depending on what race you choose to control.
• Slider bar controls and simplified interface to avoid the confusion of other games without sacrificing depth of gameplay.
• Over 150 distinct technologies to research on a dynamic tech tree that changes from game to game. While the core technology of the tree is consistent, certain offshoots are random from game to game. There is no perfect path up the tech tree to memorize and exploit, because the path keeps changing!
• New technology reflected in detailed ship models, weapons and combat effects. Over 40 weapons from six different weapon classes, in various size classes, from point defence, turrets, to massive spinal mounts!
Players can design and build ships from three size classes - Destroyer, Cruiser, and Dreadnought - by mixing and matching ship sections (command, mission, and engines), then outfitting them with armour and weapons to suit their preference.
• Up to 8 players can play against the AI and one another over LAN or online.
• Choose from a variety of scenario campaigns to play alone or with friends, each adding more colour and depth to the Sword of the Stars universe.

Born of Blood:

The year is 2445. Over 30 years have passed since the first stellar empires began to expand. Four races once set out to explore and conquer the galaxy, meeting in fiery clashes that spanned the universe. The first wars have passed and a promising age of diplomacy dawns.

Now a new alien race emerges shattering the uneasy peace. With new drive systems, ships, technology, and tactics, the Zuul burst onto the scene with a devastating agenda – not only will they conquer, they will control the entire universe… unless you put a stop to their destruction.

With savage ships and psychic powers, they enslave or annihilate all those who oppose them. As their galley disks descend to harvest slaves from neighboring races, all other empires may be forced to put aside their grudges – if they do not unite against the Zuul, each race will be systematically exterminated. Form alliances and learn to work with your foes as you lead your fleets to victory in a universe at war in Sword of Stars: Born of Blood.

A Murder of Crows:

While the four civilized races battle back the voracious Zuul and seek advantage over each other, a ghost from the past returns to the galaxy in the form of the manipulative Morrigi. Already known for their dark crow-shaped attack drones and deadly traps, this race once thought long extinct, returns looking for vengeance.

Using never-before-seen weapons, ships and tactics, the Morrigi fall upon the other five races of the Sword of the Stars universe, who must now adapt to the ancient masters of space or be destroyed.

Time is of the essence as world after world falls to the black winged ships that surge out of the dark like A Murder of Crows.
