Anyone got it yet?

Gary Grigsby's World At War gives you the chance to really run a world war. History is yours to write and things may turn out differently. The Western Allies may be conquered by Germany, or Japan may defeat China. With you at the controls, leading the fates of nations and alliances. Take command in this dynamic turn-based game and test strategies that long-past generals and world leaders could only dream of. Now anything is possible in this new strategic offering from Matrix Games and 2 by 3 Games.

I'm not ordering until it's actually ready to ship, but if it sticks to the 16th then I hope to have mine by Thursday or Friday (all depends when they ship). Either case is fine since then I have the whole weekend... drooool.

[&o]Please be the 16th....[&o]

I WANT IT NOW EB! I upgraded my shipping from "Next-Day Air", to "Next-Hour Rocket Delivery". I'm thinking about the Time Machine option, but that adds another $5.00

So I now hope to have Wednesday! Hehehe!

If the EB in my town is as reliable as they always have been they will get the shipment a day ahead of release or the very day around 10:00am. I'll be standing there waiting till UPS arrives. ;) The Sims 2 was there a day ahead of release and they let a few "friends" have theirs early. ;)

What I want to know now is how many PBEMers are there out there? I defintely want to get a game of this going PBEM soon. ;)
WE/I WANT 1:1 or something even 1:2 death animations in the KOIOS PANZER COMMAND SERIES don't forget Erik! ;) and Floating Paratroopers We grew up with Minor, Marginal and Decisive victories why rock the boat with Marginal, Decisive and Legendary?

That happens all the time at nearly every retail store. Some do it for "friends", some have no clue they are supposed to wait, and some just dont care.

I'll definitely be playing some PBEM with this, though not until I thoroughly learn the ropes.

The problem with that it, the ropes in PBEM are entirely different. [;)]

I'm fairly sure he means the mechanics of how to play, move units, research, using all the popups, etc. etc. I want to do that myself, and of course cuddle up in my warm bed and read that huge manual from front to back. ;) A game with a manual from MATRIX, better watch out for thunder storms, tornados and hurricanes. ;)

[:D]Yeah, i've actually ordered WAW online in this case after looking at all the AAR's. Although my plan is to start a fire, grabbing a premium cigar or my favorite pipe, and kicking my feet up while i mumble to myself: "Hmmm, a manual from Matrix, well how do you like that?"[;)]

A manual?? Oh God, now I have to remember how to read.

Indeed I do. It would look silly if I tried to play PBEM and I didn't even know how to move a unit, wouldn't it? [:D]

Bah. Play the tutorial, then go full speed ahead, damn the torpedos, and....watch as you leave key territories open (see: early AARs). Then, play 6 more months and....watch as you leave key territories open (see: my AARs).

Yes, that is it. From those listings it appears they HAVE the game, as those are not pre orders. So, retailers have it, when do we get to download?
