    Personally, I didn't have too much trouble with loading times, they're hardly any worse than what I was used to with RTW 1.5 + EB. I do run the full graphics though, that might have something to do with it.

    I miss the arrow keys, and I'm not entirely sure why all key-functions should be grouped under the left-hand-side of the keyboard. Oh well, you can probably re-assign hotkeys anyway.

    from what i hear, the idea of doing that is to promote better form for playing computer game. i read a study in the NY Times that you have less of a chance of getting Carpel Tunnel if the keys for moving are on the left side.

    So far.... meh.
    Certainly there seems to be a lot of Imperial Glory in there.

    Looks like lots of good modding potential though.

    Well.... maybe you just can't handle it? You can just change the settings manually...

    Cool store, bro! I want some ham.
    No ham, pepsi.
    They make deli slices of frozen pepsi now? Awesome!
    You also need to purchase a small freezer for storage of your pepsi.
    It runs on batteries. You'll need a few.
    Uhh, I guess I won't have pepsi then. Do you have change for a twenty?

    I wasn't going to download the demo, but I finally broke down and I just started it about 10 minutes ago. Is the demo worth it overall? I'd like to know before I download the entire thing. Thanks

    the options for manually switching graphics are greyed out or just not there, i figure my comp probably cant handle it anyway. Is there a way to play as the americans in the demo? cuz that would be cool\


    The demo is most certainly worth the time, btw
