Status: offline 		Is it possible to order the hardback manual without the game?

I have already bought the download DC: Barbarossa, but would like the manual also.

Cheers,

Status: offline 		you would need to contact support as it would be a back order or new order etc so maybe yes maybe no, it all depends as it is something they are adding to the cart system but not fully sure it's working as yet either

but always a good idea to ask

I found out later that the postage was actually fair to my country, (used to getting wildly overcharged by others) and saw how nice this manual looks like on the Twitch-stream.

Cheers,

It would be a shame not to be able to buy such a nice hardback manual.
It's almost like old days where you often got several books, maps and charts with your PC-game.

Status: offline 		The Manual is a first class quality publication.

Would it be better to provide loose leaf punched pages to put in a binder (binder could be provided by game owner) to enable pages to be replaced in the future as the game is updated?

These pages could be printed or pdf download (you could charge for these).

Costs for seperate pages should be less than producing a bound book.

The possibility of being able to get the majority of game information from the manual without having to check the forum to find which parts of the manual have been changed would greatly benefit the game.
