Box edition - with printed manual?

Unity of Command lets you replay the epic conflict that was the Stalingrad Campaign of World War II. In this turn-based game of strategy and cunning, observe how opportunity leads the German army to advance recklessly into the steppes of southern Russia. And as the story unfolds, join the Soviet campaign to repel the invaders... As these legendary battles play out on the hex board, the tension of decision making and difficulties of conducting operations on a massive scale emerge. Command armies and fronts in maneuver warfare, thrust and encircle, capture cities and cross continents; but never, ever forget to watch your supply lines. The Red Turn expansion ads a gigantic Soviet expansion centered on the Kursk campaign.

Nope - it's DX (Digital Express) meaning the manual is on the disk in PDF

Thanks JudgeDredd, that is correct.  There is a PDF Manual, not a printed Manual with the Physical version.

Including the list of contents, the manual has 41 pages (21 as a .pdf with two pages shown at the same time). The subsections are divided into easy to read paragraphs, with a lot of screenshots around to show what is being explained. There's no difficult to read wall of text.
