Is there anyone going to Origins who would take pity on a poor country preacher down in the South Georgia hinterlands and pick up one and send it to me. I'd be more than happy to sell you an indulgen....er... send you a check. Not that I'm desperate mind you, but I only work one hour a week...and need something to keep my mind engaged on all of those long days with nothing happening..(Yeah! Right!)

How soon will a hard copy be available to purchase on-line?



edit: Sorry guys, just read another thread that confirms on-line sales should be up and running in a few days time.

Boy, this really makes me wonder...I mean do I want to be in the same club as two fat middle-aged men.

What if a female sees me playing this? Will I ever have sex again?

Chances are pretty good you were never going to have sex again anyway.

BlueLavender, you should be able to buy the game via Digital Download, no? Also, I think Matrix has said they'll be taking orders to ship CDs as well. I don't think the game is appearing in retail stores anywhere.

Just tell any prospective females you meet that you will soon be taking command of one of the most important theatres of war in all of history; where millions of lives, where many desperate battles, and where thousands of ships and aircraft will all hang in the balance, and where your every command will be of vital importance to the outcome of one of the most titanic struggles ever to occur in the Pacific. . .

They will soon be swooning at your feet, oh Mighty One. . . [&o]

Doubt that. They'd be far more likely to swoon if you could carry on an intelligent conversion concerning ER's Dr. Korday "slut factor" balancing act between two suiters.........

Officer: "Men, yonder lies the great land of Origins, where Matrix dwells."

Wargamers: (Cheering)

Officer: "We have waited these many years to behold the Holy Grail of WiTP. If we venture forth on our Great Crusade we shall encounter heavy traffic, other gamers, ticket attendents, and booth babes. Not to do so means waiting for Digital Download. What say ye, men?"

Wargamers: (Thunderous chanting) "On to Origins!"

Officer: (Raising the banner) "Then onward you brave, stout men!"

Of course, the trick here is not to let those females know it's just a computer game. [;)]

To pull this off successfully, wargamers may need to purchase a uniform, cover it with lots of braid and medals, and strut about the house shouting: "Set carriers on 'Don't React', 'tell those pilots to get more training', and 'remind me to take submarines off computer control' . . ."
