    I got it. Woot!

    But I’m back at work and wont be able to play unitl around 6:30pm EST.

    I’ll tell you about the contents tho’;
    - There are 3 discs (yes 3!) in two jewel cases
    - There is a manual of approx. 80 pages that reminds me of the M:TW manual
    - There is an insert w/ the Roman Tech Tree on one side and a well laid out Province/City map on the other

    Can’t wait for this day to be over!

    Bestbuy doesn't have it in yet, but they say it will be in later today or tomorrow. I'll probably drop in at 6pm or so, and if they have it, stay up all night playing.

Thou hast dared to mock me, and to question the power of Melkor, master of the fates of Arda. Therefore with my eyes thou shalt see, and with my ears thou shalt hear; and never shall thou move from this place until all is fulfilled unto its bitter end". -Tolkien

    2 jewelcases? ehm that seems weird. I'm probably misunderstanding, because 2 jewelcases to me means 2 dvd boxes, making Rome the first standalone game I know to have that. Most of the time its just 1 jewelcase and any CD's beyond 2 are put in paper sleeves. There are also a few jewelcases that can hold 3 CD's, so if there are truly 2 jewelcases, it seems a bit of a waste and inconvenient too (takes up more space).
    I'm probably misinterpreting, so could you explain what you mean with 2 jewelcases?

    JFYI and example, in the U.S., Far Cry came in a single jewl case that held FIVE CDs. I believe in Europe, FC was distributed on a single DVD. Computer System DVD players aren't as prevelant here as in Europe.

    Soulflame, there are two jewel cases in the box. One hold discs 1 & 2 in a flip out double-sided tray and the other jewel case is your typical 1 CD case. I was a little surprised at seeing 2 of them too. They both have the same exact cover so it was impossible to tell the difference until you opened them. Okay, not impossible, one is heavier than the other.
