Along with an extensive story-driven single player campaign, the game also features a free multiplayer service for all owners of the game called Battle.net. Our advice to you, if you want to be a good multiplayer competitor, is to play through all of the single player campaigns first, practice some in skirmish mode on your own PC, and finally, only when youve thoroughly mastered the game, then log onto Battle.net and start going head-to-head with other human players.

Our guide will help you do all of those things... but keep in mind its a work in progress, and we still have many new sections to add in the next couple weeks. Its complete through the Orc walkthrough right now.

The latest guides for the hottest games are available for IGN Insider subscribers. If youre not an Insider, youll still want to check out IGN Guides, as we feature plenty of free and sponsored guides as well.
