PC Manual

Considering all of the discussion re: "Persistent AP's", is there any chance of posting the PC manual for dowload? I've downloaded and read the boardgame rules for both AtB and SoS. I'm curious about which rule set, if any, the PC version will most resemble.

For example, there was a question posted in the "Persistent Action points" thread about the need for opportunity action since it seems you can now activate a unit in response to an action by your opponent.

I think a peek at the PC manual would be helpful to answer a lot of the questions about changes to the board game rules. I understand there may be changes to the manual, but we would at least get the gist of how the game is played on the PC.

BTW, I am planning to buy as soon as the game is available:)

No, it's against Matrix policy to release manuals in this manner. But I'm sure that as soon as the game is for sale someone will type out that rule verbatim, so you should just hang in there.

On that note; will there be a physical copy of the manual available or just the PDF?

Hi guys,

The physical copy will come with a full color printed manual and we will release some sections as previews ahead of time.

Regards,

Would it be safe to assume that this applies to the Academy version as well (if pre-ordered through their site)?

Yes, the physical copies sold through Academy Games will be the same as those sold through the Matrix and Slitherine online stores.

Thank you Erik. I really believe Matrix may have hit pay dirt with this choice and I am hopeful that this is the first of many boardgame ports. This is the first title I have been this excited about in many, many years. Kudos Matrix!
