Manual?

Post by thefish7 »

At this price does the game come with a full print manual?

Will they ever distribute this game for sale at retail locations, you think?

Answer to both questions is no.

The manual is in PDF format and is easily printed at Kinkos... Though honestly? I prefer it in the "soft" format so I can just read at my leisure.

As for retail sales? Its highly unlikely. The only Matrix distributed game I've seen on a store shelf is a game called "Port Royale".

Trust me though, as a dedicated customer, its WELL WORTH IT! I've loved everything i've got from Matrix and the support for any issues that might crop up is top rate! [8D]

I've seen Uncommon Valor some months ago in a store in Germany.

Okay, so a question... since it's a big investment.

Do they have any pre-pearl harbor scenarios?

I'm excited about the game... I love games of this scope... seems like it will be a bit like Carriers at War was... one of my favorite games ever. :)

I've seen Uncommon Valor at GameStop, along with Higway to the Reich I think it was.

It has an editor

Tankerace is working on a 20's-30's type plan orange where several converted CV's are in as originally planned surface ships..

You also can simply skip historic move, go to war without a pearl harbor.. or use editor to make own Modified scenarios.
