Sounds like the issues have been resolved, can you confirm?

Working fine now Hubert

Will there be a steam release? And if so when?

Steam release already confirmed for 2 weeks time.

There will be a Steam (and GOG) release on the 14th July.

Though if you buy on Matrix, when the game comes out on Steam you'll be given a Steam key to add it to your library there.

Also note that the 10% launch discount only lasts until the 4th July.

Thanks for the quick response. I mainly want to avoid a box being shipped around the globe, for which I have neither use nor space. Or is there just no box shipped, if I don't check the DX checkmark? This is not super clear to me ... especially because it asks me for a shipping adress right after.

That makes sense, and only if you tick the Upgrade to Physical + Digital Edition box would a copy be posted to you, otherwise it's just a digital download.

Strategic Command: American Civil War was barely announced when it immediately ended up on my wishlist!
This is to say how much I appreciate the Strategic Command series. In fact since its very first version (SC: European Theater, 2002) then in the following variations (WW1 & WW2) more or less appreciated with their square grid, but acclaimed again with the return to hexagons. Released on June 30, I immediately bought it in digital and physical version - it's my way of supporting independent creators and publishers.

I had a question to ask about the Steam version but Bill Runacre has already answered the one posed by Laurenz above!

To answer AndySfromVA, what I appreciate above all in the SC series is the perfect balance (IMHO) maintained between:
- playability (games of reasonable length);
- historic atmosphere (no excessive micro-management);
- comfort and aesthetic pleasure (UI, event and decision panels, cards, pawns or figurines);
- what-ifs' and mods' integration, planned from the creation of the game.

Congratulations again to Hubert Cater, Iain McNeil and their teams.

Thanks LN59, thank you for your suppor and really great to hear you've enjoyed the games for as long as you have, and right from our very first release which is really great
