    Default I got it.

    undefined



    Picked it up this morning. Installed no problems. Off to read the manual with a nice cuppa and give it serious tonking. Like people said it is not like the demo.?The first battle in tutorial but i will reserve judgement for a few weeks. First impressions it looks superb i just hope it plays as good as it looks Are the rest of the UK/europeans impressed with the game as well.

    You're quite lucky because I've also pre-ordered from Amazon.co.uk for a month but the game still hasn't been dispatched... Hopefully I'll get it for Christmas.

    this morning a 9.00AM on the dot.

    myself and some bearded d00d were waiting outside the local Game until the doors opened.

    we both walked straight to R:TW, proceeded immediately to the counter, and departed the building with all available haste.

    Ok Excalibur is mine... Rushing frantically into town on my lunch break I managed to buy it, pick up some food, bring it back to my flat AND Install it!! (And to think I only get an hour long lunch break)

    When I get back later on I'll have a bash at it!

    Got it. My amazon order shipped today but I got a copy from game, when my amazon copy arrives I shall simply take that sealed one back to game for a refund ("oh gosh, I brought one and someone gave me one as a present, oh gosh!") and voila.

    So far not bad; it hasn't grabbed me but then I've only played one custom battle and the compulsery (Grrr!) tutorial. I need to tweak a lot of options etc before I start enjoying myself. So far most of my frustration has come from that tutorial with its insistance on giving you advice and forcing you to use the RTS camera. Now I'm past that ...

    PS: A big thank you to CA for including an option I asked for waaaay back when RTW was first announced - the ability to chose specific weather types for custom battles. Thanks.

    Give me a chance to get it home and play it a bit and I'll tell you, I'm going to get to know the manual on the bus home first.
    I was trying to find some help in the ancient military journals of General Tacticus, who's intelligent campaigning had been so successful that he'd lent his very name to the detailed prosecution of martial endeavour, and had actually found a section headed "What To Do If One Army Occupies A Well-Fortified And Superior Ground And The Other Does Not", but since the first sentence read "Endeavour to be the one inside" I'd rather lost heart.

    I got it too! I just woke up (hey, free day! ) and it was already in the mail... I pre-ordered it because it was cheaper, but now it's also faster!
    It's 1 jewel case btw (phew!) with all 3 CD's on one side (I said before that they existed!).

    All installed and ready to go Scipii! Woohoo!
