Hi there, I have to admit I am still a bit puzzled. While the Matrix home page clearly states that the initial version is without an AI, in the "Seven Moments of Wow" in Manual 1, 4.1.4 it mentions "Play versus AI opponent". Same thing on the home page of ADG, also there I find a remark concerning an AI included. Could somebody please confirm to me the actual status? Thx in advance

The original version doesn't have an AI but one is in the works and will be an addition that you pay for when it is available.

At the moment you can play solitaire, hot-seat or in real time with one opponent over the net. Multiplayer and PBEM are being developed as well and AFAIK they won't cost you but someone in charge can verify that.

Look at the date on that post.

No, it was hoped at the initial release that net play would be functioning. It is not.

Do you get the Player's Manuals Vol. 1 & Vol 2 digitally if you purchase the download version or are they only available as hardbound manuals when you buy the boxed version?

The Player's Manuals are included in both the download and boxed versions of the game as PDFs. Actually, there are 4 PDF files for the manuals: Volume I, Volume II, Rules as Coded, and a fourth PDF created by a beta tester which integrates all three of the other PDFs into an internally cross-referenced whole.
