I am Eric's friend, coincidentally also named Eric. I have decided to go the distance and buy the game as well s WitE (together just under 80 euros in the december sale). But haven't got a creditcard or paypal, so I need to get one of these first. At least when I tried to pay for the game, there weren't any other options? Would have preferred a bank transfer myself. Also, apparently they want to send the game physically. I am wondering if a download wouldn't suffice with an electronic manual?) I am choosing paypal I think, but want to open a separate bankaccount just for this purpose, as I don't really trust a direct bank link to an account with more money on it. Call me oldfashioned. Anyway, I am really serious with regard to these kinds of time investments, and hope that I get to prove to be serious enough! With regard to being a deep historical student, at one time I had one of the greatest german divisional and regimental history collections in the world (the serious stuff, 116. lubs, schaub, plato (all books with regard to infantry divisions except the stunning 295. and most books with regard to the armored divisions, except the excellent 66. Schutzen regiment), some 300+ books, all original, most 100+ euro's a piece, which I spent a really long time (25+ years) building and studying. Ended up donating the collection to the Dutch Royal Military Academy. If anyone is interested, I urge you to visit the KMA in Breda and enjoy some really really rare books! The people (officers and librarians there were amazed by this collection, and It amazed me a lot that they were so amazed! Anyway being a student of history doesn't make me a good player. But I have been reading a lot of AAR's and Newb Info and learned a lot in the process and it realy amazes me how deep this game is. So I am really looking forward to playing against someone! I will issue a challenge here in a day or 3-4. Thanks all for your clear and positive reactions. I hope I will prove to be a valuable and reliable opponent! Best regards Eric
