Thanks, I should have been more specific...I was looking for a copy while on a business trip away from my home PC and thought there might have been a DL for it. No worries.

I agree with the UI issues and stuff like that. Lots of good suggestions. But how about some sort of victory score, high-score list and recap (AKA the Civilization series)? The "YOU WIN" screen with the juvenile sayings from the other leaders just doesn't cut it.

<t> I bought DW and the expansions some time ago, but I'm only now getting into it. In a nutshell, where's the manual for the game? I don't see it in my downloads or the download links, but there's supposedly a 72 page PDF manual.<br/>
<br/>
It's probably staring me in the face, but I'm just ...

I am getting so tired of these stupid thread posts bitching about price.<br/>
If you think something is too expensive that is a clear indication that somewhere your brain believes it is not ...

What play balance issues are these? I know of nothing that seriously impairs gameplay.<br/>

Until some of the play balance issues are fixed, I'd have to recommend folks to stay clear.&nbsp; I really regret spending my hard-earned $70 (the price of the hardcopy game) on this one. &nbsp;

Guys, I know I'm taking a hiatus with this game and I don't necessarily disagree with Trotter's comments here. However, I knew Trotter (out of Greensboro, NC) and I wish I could tell you he's losing it...except he lost it about 5 years ago.

I would add that the discussion was partly prompted by your comments. It would be a shame for you to make constructive criticism and then not benefit from it.

You have been nothing but extremely helpful, a fact of ...

As was discussed in another thread, another reason that a-historically large armies can form (in addition to choosing settings that make it possible, such as Greater Population or higher difficulty levels) is that it is up to ...

<t> Well, two points.<br/>
<br/>
1.&nbsp; I'm playing on a low difficulty level again, so seeing this massive Rebel army shouldn't happen because it shouldn't get huge bonuses.&nbsp; Fog of war was engaged, so I cheated and engaged every military force the Rebs had to see their actual numbers ...

<r> My feeling of hope for this game is rapidly sinking.<br/>
<br/>
I had a number of issues just getting the game working and then a bunch more (<URL url="http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=1480608"><LINK_TEXT text="tm.asp?m=1480608">http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=1480608 ...

<r> Thanks again for all of the responses. Please remember that I don't have the manual yet, so I'm really in the dark here on some things that I'm sure are explained adequately there.<br/>
<br/>
Gil understood #1...again, it had nothing to do with the 36 slot limit. It's weird that it's not come ...

Thanks for responding and some of that is good advice.&nbsp; However, no offense intended, but because English isn't your first language (so I'm assuming) I can't understand half of what you're saying.&nbsp; Let me try to respond to what I think you're saying, but if someone ...

<r> Please forgive me if this post seems like I’m whining, as that’s not my intention. I’ve enjoyed most of my experience with FOF, but have some real concerns and questions that are right now spoiling an otherwise great game. I don’t have the manual yet, so some of this might be covered in there ...

It does seem to be crashing at the point in the game in which the Flash animation is being called, so I still tend to suspect this is the problem. If you don't mind, I'm going to build a special version of the game that bypasses the initial ...

Thanks for the suggestion, but I already have Shockwave installed.

Another hour today spent to no avail...including redownloading and reinstalling the game.&nbsp;

I purchased the game today, digital download (with the disks on the way). Unfortunately, I can't get it to run. The download worked fine and the install worked ok. When I boot the game, the first error I get is about the Indeo Codec not being present on my machine. Of course ...
