Myth II Handbook - digital version

A single berserk reached us yesterday, after having come all the way over the mountains from the city of Willow, fourteen hundred miles away. He delivered to Alric a single package the size of a man's fist, wrapped in rags, and refuses to talk with anyone about events in the West.

For the first time ever, the Myth II Handbook is now available online, for free.

Written by J.Charles Holt (aka Deathwhore), a member of Voracious Rabbits and creator of one of Myth II's legendary early maps, "VR Pool Party", The Myth II Handbook is a 1999-era treasure trove of Myth 2 goodness - chock full of strategies, solo level walkthroughs, unit guides, Fear and Loathing mapmaking walkthroughs, and a whole lot more.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

The digital version of The Myth II Handbook has been 'optimized' for display on several different kinds of devices. The content in each version is identical, the only difference is in the resolution/appearance, the visual quality and size of the pages) decreases as you go down the list.

Unless you are going to be reading the Myth II Handbook on a phone or eBook reader, just get the 'monitor_tablet' version which should look good on desktop/laptop monitors and hi res tablets like the iPad/Surface/Kindle Fire/Nook HD/Galaxy Tab/etc.

The different versions are:

Myth2Handbook (monitors & tablets) 61.0 MB (best color)

Myth2Handbook (iPhone) 26.1 MB (good color)

Most thanks to the author - I wouldn't have even considered scanning the book if he hadn't been willing to let me share it with the Myth community. (and thanks to jason_ac who stalked/tracked-down the author so I had someone to ask)

If there is any person who would benefit from reading this handbook, it would be you, OMRAKE.
