<t> Has anyone noticed the inaccurate B26 artwork? I am nitpicking but it happens to be one of my favorite tac bombers and sadly under-represented in the gaming world (at least from my collection of sims and wargames over the years). I'm happy it's included in PC series, but a shame the artwork for ...

Do any of the Matrix sci-fi titles play similarly to the classic Master of Orion 2?

Is this printed manual included with the Boxed purchase?

Download ETA momentarily. Thank you!!!

Note that the .png graphics are completely independent of this and can be accessed at will via an Advanced Rule option.

Thanks for this note! It's all I needed actually instead of doing a full switch.

Thank you Iain. Today I'm celebrating 95 days of sobriety and treated myself to a new laptop. This is awesome. Thank you.

Computer gaming...the best buzz there is. Keep it up rogo'.

Thank you. I installed this game on another computer and I read the readme file once done. It also provided the info you kindly shared above.

Happy Easter to you and thanks for the update!

Thank you. Magically, the .pdfs are now accessible. Just prior to this discovery, I opened up an arbitrary .pdf that I knew I could open. Afterwards, I tried the TOAW3 .pdfs and they're all opening now too.

I'll consider this case solved and closed.

I see there is an .exe file for classic graphics which appears would overwrite current files in the installation folder. If this is the case, how do I revert back to the new graphics? Click of a button, or reinstallation? Thanks in advance...

<t> Hello. Compatibility issues between Win8.1 and TOAW COW v1.04 prompted me to get TOAW3 (thanks in no small part to Easter discount). I'm happy to say it runs well on 8.1. However, I'm unable to access the .pdf files. When I try to open them I get a Fatal Error indicating I couldn't access DDE ...

Yes, thanks for the Easter Egg. I got TOAW3 just now. Nevermind that I have every previous iteration of TOAW. I'm just glad Matrix keeps these classic wargames/engines fresh and compatible with current OS's. And thanks for another awesome discount!

A recent question was asked about how the sequence of scenarios took place and what the thought process was used to create them.

Ah, I'm glad I found this thread. Thank you very much for sharing your insights, MR ...

<t> Thanks for the suggestions, okiemcquire and Matti Kuokkanen. Warhammer is tempting but I already loaded up during the last Matrix sale and have a ton of games I've yet to get into and so little time. I had no idea Warhammer and PC used the same engine...which is a good thing from what I see. I ...

Yes, thanks for the kmz/tour. Truly adds to the immersion and I've been using it as a resource for scenario/map creation.

Congratulations to team Red Storm!

FPC:RS has been a great source of ideas for creating maps and scenarios in Steel Beasts, another title that made the top 20!

<r> Thank you Tazak, but I'm interested in the <I><s>[i]</s>ideas<e>[/i]</e></I> of the stock scenarios, not the how-to's of creating one. I appreciate you taking the time to reply and share that link.<br/>

Mad Russian, that is more like it. I'd love to see feedback from other scenario ...

I didn't find any notes in the manual but I would love to see w behind the scenario creation for FPC:RS. I'm a huge fan of the hypothetical NATO vs WP plot and it'd be interesting to see designer notes if any.

well i don't normally comment on heated debates, but tbh nobody patches games like matrix does, or test for them either, end of my post / comments, from here it's read only here...
