I don't think Matrix sells for them any more.

I don't hate Steam, but they ain't my first choice.

I didn't have Steam installed until this morning. I got the game, looks like I will enjoy it.

Loving this so far. I think anyone who disliked the first game for being too "puzzle-y" should be happy with this title. The addition of HQ units, deployable supply depots, and persistent units/support helps add flexibility to how you complete missions. Also, infantry is a lot more useful than it was in the first game, especially with the addition of special suppressive attacks. This feels like a proper Panzer General successor with great graphics and enough nuance to stand out from your average operational lite wargame. I didn't care a whole lot for the first game except as a beer-n-pretzels game to play for a few minutes at a time, but they knocked it out of the park with this installment -- I can see myself spending a ton of time with the campaign and the editor.

If the rule you followed brought you to this, of what use was the rule?

So, basically, today we have both the new Command and Unity of Command 2. Choices, choices...
