Already have AE but always wanted WPO, really excited. Hopefully a few people might want to do PBEMs in a few weeks after picking up the game.

Do you need a copy of WiTP installed to install WPO? I am thinking of buying a new laptop. Also, if I download WPO on my wife's laptop now, can it be transferred or re-downloaded to my new laptop once I get it? In that instance, I would delete the install on my wife's laptop so as to only have one active copy as I imagine licensing would require it.

Cribtop,

1. WPO is a stand-alone game - you don't need to have WitP installed to play it.
2. Matrix is great about multiple downloads if you need them. Moving the game from your wife's laptop to your new computer shouldn't be an issue. (I've had AE on 3 different machines over the past 4 years and have never waited longer than 24 hours for customer service to provide me with a link to re-install when I had computer or hard drive problems.)

Be warned that WPO is a totally different game that is either virtually without or very limited aircraft. Fleets can and will sail within a hex or 2 of each other and never have a fight. Encounters are usually by accident and the game itself is a much slower pace than WITP. I'm involved in a 2 X 2 WPO right now and the capabilities are sooooo different.

I never thought that doing an AAR would be so time consuming and difficult.

Just saw this on the product page

Please take note: Due to the great success of the Deal of the Week featuring the game, printed manuals ran out of stock and we are waiting for a reprint. We expect stock to arrive on the 3rd of December.
