That is our hope as well, but having spoken to Matrix we know it could be after the 8th and we are just letting folks know. With the documentation issue late in the week the printing copy lost a day or two to the schedule. We will have to wait and see what happens.

I'm going to see if we can get cleared to put the Printer Friendly Manual up when we have our Dev call Monday evening. We also need to get that PDF version from Matrix and the Layout gurus.

Recently, the developers stated (obliquely) that FPCRS would cost less than Command: Modern Air and Naval Operations. That game costs $80/$95 (download and boxed).

Personally, I'm expecting ~$40 for the download-only edition.

See, this is the only thing I hate about grog game publishers because Battlefront does it too. We all know these are niche games so they might be expensive, but we still buy them, people will always moan and complain. That and the game grog game publishers don't do pre-order downloads in the year of our Stalin 2013.

Try it out once. I swear I could be dying of cancer and ask a dev or head for at least a price range and they'd still remain stalewart over it. Everything else is perfect in the grog community except this. This is just annoying and doesn't help customers on budgets who want to portion correctly to support them. It's frustrating i'm sorry.

Status: offline 		If i remember correctly the price war thread is in general chat forums.

I guess the price for boxed and download and the download only will also be announced tomorrow. I know we can never wait for the release of a highly awaited game, but to start talking about the price, we'll I think this is the wrong thread. I want the game I'll buy, I want but can't afford it- then I save or wait for a sales date. And I know I am not the person to start a debate on this subject, let's just enjoy enjoy the prerelease hype! Please!
