Matrix Games Forums

I'm sure that a specific time on 11/17 is being discussed as to when the game will be available for purchase and downloading.

But since the game is about the War in Europe, I think it would be fitting to have the game launched at the same time CEST that Hitler ordered the attack on Poland [:)]

From history:
On 31 August 1939, Hitler ordered hostilities against Poland to start at 4:45am the next morning (September 1,1939)

While the first attack occurred at 4:40am (their watches must have been off [:)]), I'd use the 4:45 time since that is what the man wanted.

So what does Matrix and Hubert think about this? [:)]

Actually, would be better if the game will be available at 0:45am so that we can launch the first attack at 4:45am [:D]

They came over the border an hour before dawn, rolling in lines through the day............

Not many pop lyrics like Al Stewart's, for sure! "Roads to Moscow" from "Past, Present, Future" (1973)

So, any news on this? Can we play at 12:01 a.m. tonight?

Too true lol.

Maybe they should do like the Civ 6 release and have a web site to show when you can play it for each time zone [X(]

Just received an email as beta tester which said:
"Thank you for helping beta test Strategic Command WWII - War in Europe.

Email was from the UK so time there was around 11.00am GMT Thursday. Looks like a Friday release from UK, maybe that sneaks into Thursday night USA for you?

Hmmm, yeah when can we buy this game?

Ok its fast approaching high noon here in the UK,I have even managed to arrange for the wife to be out xmas shopping,so that I can get peace to play this beauty,so when is it being released exactly give us a clue?

To use an old cliche, the silence is deafening! [&:]

Yes. Yes. The Americans are now awake...we can begin the war properly. Let''s go!
