Les_the_Sarge_9_1 -> Coming to a store near you... (4/19/2003 3:07:07 AM)
Cool I was able to hold a copy of Uncommon Valour in my hands this weekend while visiting family in Ottawa (which is where I am as I type). Maybe the future is Matrix and Matrix is the future. Either way, seeing it on a shelf at Compucenter was a positive indicator to me. When Matrix has titles in a mainstream store in a major mall I am happy. Some web sites are just fan driven and fan owned. I want Matrix to be the home site of a major wargaming company in 5 years time personally. I have been to many years unable to go to a decent store and casually buy real wargames.

And then I wouldn't have to pay that 30$ shipping fee to get it :) --Mikko

Hehehe well being able to hold something doesn't mean I can always buy it, otherwise hugging catholic schoolgirls would be so much more fun hehe. I had a strong urge to get the copy, and I still might not make it out of Ottawa without it for that matter. No other major competing interests other than the atypical debt load hehe (in my case a Canadian Tire Card, gota stop buying power tools somehow).

My sister doesn't think to much of the Rideau Centre, but me I only need an electronics store to make a mall worth it.

[/B][/QUOTE] Yeah I agree with you:) Rideau Centre was closest to my place in Ottawa when I lived there so that is the main reason I went to that mall....they did have an EB store there so I did not need to go anywhere else.

What store did you Visit Les?

Les_the_Sarge_9_1 -> (4/21/2003 3:26:39 AM)
In the Place dOrleans mall there is both an Electronics Boutique as well as a Compucenter. I am fairly certain the Uncommon Valour was on sale in the Compucenter (one copy). Was a reasonable price too.

Sgt.Striker -> (4/21/2003 4:46:50 AM)
thanks

:eek: Matrix has a "main" website?:eek: Man I need to get out once in a while!;)

Les_the_Sarge_9_1 -> (4/28/2003 7:16:08 PM)
My only problem with the Main Page, is it's like my home town newspaper (its an 8 page waste of paper), I can survive without it. I have it bookmarked solely so I can find the downloads section easiest when telling people about Steel Panthers. Rarely and I do mean rarely, I look at the games in development page just to remind myself I have not missed something.

No need to order overseas, at least not if you live near Helsinki. Stockmann in the city center has a shelf full of wargames and yes including Uncommon Valor and other Matrix titles. - don't know about the other Stockmann stores. Nyrkki

Sgt.Striker -> (4/30/2003 9:28:38 AM)
I went to the Rideau Centre today to try and pick it up and neither Compucentre or EB had it. I even tried to go through Eb's database, o well,maybe next time...............

Les_the_Sarge_9_1 -> (4/30/2003 10:32:55 AM)
Phone the two places at the Place dOrleans mall. That is where I last saw it.

CompUSA here in Pgh had 3cc of UV on the shelf this week wish it was CL or CA or even WITP :p just as well probably.
