Many of the page links need to be updatd becasue of the server shift - some of the old links are IP specific and now they are different...no rest for the weary

I am amazed. I mean, there is nothing "extra" in this patch? Is There?

Just all important files you need to get 5.0 running?
A bigger than that 10mb you guys promised, but I'll get it anyway.

"server busy, waiting to retry"....
I guess there is as much competition for the download as for a free parking slot in the Quartier Latin on a Saturday night

Well. There is lots of new features in 5.0. Lots of nice things and tweaks that make me happy.
Point IS: There is so much useless stuff that I dont need. Scenarios for one thing..

You'll need these scenarios because they are checked/corrected to work with 5th release. If you don't need them then its ok, but think about how many others will and want to play them. Also if all the changes are made to separate update-files, it would be very difficult to play with someone else, as there would not be any common base game anymore. But if you don't like to play against others, its ok. This leaves just those campaings. Do you play them?
Look this as a answer to many other questions of this 5th release. This is nothing personal, but your questions are good.

We announce all downloads there first and give those folks a head start.
Then a couple hours later we post it here. I'll post to the other Forums and usenet in the morning...
Oh what am I talking about...
The 4.5 to v5 updgrade is now available on the download page. THe full version will be avialable as soon as it is finished uploading!
Enjoy the weekend and our apologiesit took so long! I think you will agree it was worth the wait
