Gary Grigsby’s War in the East Don to the Danube is released!

Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: The German-Soviet War 1941-1945 is a turn-based World War II strategy game stretching across the entire Eastern Front. Gamers can engage in an epic campaign, including division-sized battles with realistic and historical terrain, weather, orders of battle, logistics and combat results.

The critically and fan-acclaimed Eastern Front mega-game Gary Grigsby’s War in the East just got bigger and better with Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: Don to the Danube! This expansion to the award-winning War in the East comes with a wide array of later war scenarios ranging from short but intense 6 turn bouts like the Battle for Kharkov (1942) to immense 37-turn engagements taking place across multiple nations like Drama on the Danube (Summer 1944 – Spring 1945).

We are continuing to investigate, but we haven't found a problem yet. The customers that have sent us links that don't work for them, those links work fine for us. We've placed test orders that work fine. There's obviously something going on here, but it may be system, browser or order specific. Please keep in mind that when someone posts here because they are having an issue, that does not really tell you whether there is a general issue. We are seeing many orders for Don to the Danube go through, and have only heard from a few customers with issues getting the download.

Regards,

I had no problems downloading the D to D add on--- for what it's worth. Excellent game, by the way.

Gentlemen,
ORIGINAL: Andrew Loveridge

The War in the East just got bigger and better with this exciting new expansion!

I would just like to second the above statement. Personally, I liked the scenarios for the "basis game" very much, and the new ones are a good addition that for me was absolutely worth the money. Thanks to everyone involved in this great add-on, great job, please continue along this line !

Just my 2cts

Glad you are enjoying it. I enjoyed playing Drama on the Danube PBEM more than I've enjoyed any other scenario or game in many years. If you have a chance to play it against another player, try it out. Just be sure if you're the German player that you aggressively strike for the southern passes so you can delay the Soviet juggernaut.

Alas, my PBEM-time is completely taken by WitP AE, which is my absolute favourite. Therefore, for now I just scratch on the surface of WitE against the AI when waiting for a WitP AE turn and definitely have not yet achieved sufficient in-depth knowledge of WitE to try a PBEM.

Yes, it checks if DttD is installed before adding the changes to the DttD files. So if DttD is added later it won't have the updates from the patch.
