Im about to order this game ,
I need some advice .....Im a relative newbie too wargaming although I did play panzer general many years ago an loved that to bits ,
from what I can make out from the site an screenies this is like panzer general ??
I have tried Battles In Normandy....awhile ago ...lost interest it was tooo heavy indepth Grognard an I wasnt too up on the lil signs for infantry/tanks etc ..lol thats why I loved Panzer general so much ..
When I order the game through the post will I get a manual with it ?
Is their time limits on goes ,I mean say in the campaign I get 45 turns or is it til you reach victory/win points ??
Anyway from what I read it looks a cracking game ,an Im sure the devs will keep the buyers happy with any patches needed ?
Im just going to go find my Monty beret :)
best regards

If you ordered the physical copy, you can download the Digital version now as well. Also, the physical copy comes with a manual.

The time limit is set to normal 1945...although you can turn this option off and have the war go on to 1946 sometime. I have played many, many turns and still only into 1942.

The game is a gem. A breath of fresh air. very easy to get into and tough to play. I find it chellenging and rewarding.

There are many, many worse things you could spend your money on.

I find it great value for money and I can't wait to see how my campaign turns out.

In your case, assuming you bought from the UK part of our shop, it is shipped from the UK
The boxes should ship out in about a week or two.

Your physical order is secure. So just go to www.findmyorder.com and type in the details of your order (should've been emailed to you) and the password you used when buying online...then you can download it and play right away.

I ordered mine on Friday and I don't have my physical copy yet and I have no idea how long a physical shipment takes for a new release....so you might want to try the download option now!

Of course this only works if you bought the physical+download combo.
