Is the expansion only available at $9.99 if you buy as a bundle? I already own CWII but when I try to just buy the expansion, still shows full price for me.

I am very tempted to buy this game with the discount but would like to know from those who already own it how it compares to the first game. I have played the first game but not a huge fan of it. So what are the opinions out there?[&:]

I am tempted to buy it as well with the combo discount. So the question is to buy from Matrix or buy it on steam. If I buy it from Matrix,it looks like I could get a steam code as well.

This week's deal "Panzer Corps Wehrmacht" make it's debut on The Deal of the Week! [:)] I've been waiting for this one since the sale started (over a year ago). I'm buying the boxed edition, it comes with a printed manual [:)] so you can't beat the price...jump on it!

Lol Wings how long have you been working for Slitherine group? hehe So detailed about the games and what they come with and how many have been on the deal of the week and how many times and which ones and every week I might add. [:'(]

I have to admit this weeks deal of the week is a pretty good one as I have been waiting for this discount myself. I have Africa Corp and a couple of the DLC scenario paks and Allied General. This would pretty much complete my collection and under $50 I might add. [:)] Thas a good deal getting so much for less than one game usually.

I don't work for Slitherine/Matrix. I started this thread as a private gamer and I comment on the Deal of the Week as a public service as a reminder of these great deals. I like to keep track of what has been on sale in the past so Slitherine/Matrix knows and can hopefully put the games on sale that have not been on sale in the past...I keep a list of what has been on sale and what has not, so anyone can inquire.
I'm hoping to purchase the entire (most, that is) game catalog (boxed versions) through the Deal of the Week! These games are an investment for my upcoming retirement. [:)]

I look forward to discussing the game of the week with wings7, because he makes me feel like my problem with buying too many games isn't as bad as his [:D]

I don't look at it like a problem, I have no one to answer to but myself... [:D]

This week's deal "Combat Command: The Matrix Edition" makes it's debut on The Deal of the Week! [:)] I've always been a fan of hex-based wargames, especially WWII! I'm jumping on this one...how many of you have played this one? Happy Gaming!

Good game with very much a boardgame feel to it.

Could have had a lot more popular and had a lot more input in the form of player designed scenarios if the developers hadn't gone AWOL for 6+ months shortly after it's release leaving some fairly critical bugs unresolved - they are however now mostly fixed though there has been no new input from the developers since the last patch in April 2014.

Thanks John, for the info!

This week's deal is a whopper "Command Ops" the entire series! "Command Ops: Battles from the Bulge" and "Command Ops: Highway to the Reich", second time both of these have been on sale but "Command Ops: Battles for Greece" makes is debut! [:)] I have the first two but I'm picking up "Greece" to complete the series. I have not played very much of Command Ops, but what I have I've enjoyed! The core game has gotten good reviews, including the Charles S. Roberts (CSR) award! Happy Gaming!
