im a download fanboy - so thats my weekend out of the window!!!!

i get a PDF manual in the download though yes? i can print that at work

now...SPREAD THE WORD

Yes, .pdf is most definitely in the download.

Speaking of the manual... is there a section that just describes the major changes from COG?  I've had games in the past where there's just one chapter up front for previous players of older versions that just cover a few major changes to allow them to jump right in without reviewing the whole manual for all the changes.

Well, sort of. Our lead developer/programmer/etc. EricBabe wrote a VERY long letter to our customers detailing the numerous changes, and in many cases explaining his/our thinking behind them. It will be in the ReadMe.pdf file (though I'll probably post it here in the forum as well when the time comes). So while the manual doesn't indicate what has changed, reading that will clue you in to just about anything you would need to know. And most/all of the changes not specifically described there will be quite obvious, I should add.

Edging ever closer to Friday...tick...tick...tick...

"Barbie's Horse Adventures".., man, that is super funny. Thanks.

How much is L200 and what is the road tax? How does that work?

lol...the reason I have spare cash these days is because last May I moved jobs...and work 4 miles from home instead 24. So I sold my car and cycle to work every day...the savings from May last year to date are £1700 and will be in the region of £2000 a year!

Petrol used to cost me £200pm. Road tax £200pa. Car Insurance £300pa and maintenance around £1000+pa with "fixes"...

I'm saving most of it, but I think I'm entitled a little extravagance for giving up my car and all the expenses therein...don't you? [;)] 

L200??? You mean £200? That is 200 UK pounds. Road Tax is a legal requirement to drive on Britains roads and is renewed every 12 months at your cost. It depends on the size of engine how much you pay in road tax. My wife had a 1.1litre and paid less than £100 a year. I had a 1.8litre and it cost around £200.

Just curious, but approximately how long after the digital release will the digital + physical copies be done?

The Digital + Physical options should show up in the store 3-4 business days after the digital download release. However, it will take a few weeks for the physical copies to actually be in stock and shipping out, until that time we'll be taking physical orders, but they'll be backordered (which is why you'd want to go Digital + Physical so you can download and play while you wait).

I've been a really good boy for the past 2 days of Lent, can I have CoG:EE tomorrow? Totally not eating meat tomorrow, I promise!

Download trigger finger ready here.

on behalf of mrs dredd and all the junior dredds i have decided you are not allowed to buy this game to add to your pile of unplayed titles.

No more games for you until youve finished a full WitP PBEM game, sold all your boardgames and admit that if it wasnt for England Scotland would be bankrupt - then you can buy COG:EE ok?

JD, when did your wife sign in here?

Can't be my wife....the "online version" doesn't nearly moan at me enough! (not that I do not deserve being moaned at)

You guys are gonna love this game - I was a big CoG1 fan, and CoG:EE just carries it to a whole new level.

Can anyone guess who my Avatar pic is...? He's in the game now, but wasn't before.

I fired up Forge of Freedom for the first time in ages last night and it brought home how much I missed this engine. I'm really looking forward to this, though I will bide my time for the physical so I can have a nice manual.

'tis Friday you know [:D]

... are we there yet? [:'(]


oh and it would be really nice if it did come out today seeing that it's my birthday and I still need to buy myself a present... [:D]

"Monday you can Total War, Tuesday, Wednesday, stay up till four, Thursday dont even keep the score, its Friday download now."[:D]

Everything is looking good so far for a digital download release later today. I have to say though, there are a lot of very tired people between the Matrix Staff and Western Civilization development team today. I hope we don't need to do another push like this anytime soon. [>:]

How about .... now!
