    Well I bought it online and downloaded and order the optional CD...

    The 4 times thing is not how often you can install it. It is how many times you can download it. But as long as you keep the downloaded software somewhere safe then you don't need to download it again.

    I spent the extra bucks onthe optional CD which turned up promptly and is safely tucked away in the BI box...

    I really don't see what the issue is. If you really liked RTW (playing the Greeks) then this is more of the same plays really well. If not then I suggest avoiding it!

    If I got Era's it would just be for completeness and the book as I already have all the software in it...

    So you can buy the Alexander CD alone?

    EDIT: The annoying thing is that I'm going to get it anyway..

Let him not laugh too gladly when the water runs through his fingers, nor stand too silent when the setting sun makes red the veld with fire. Let him not be moved when the birds of his land are singing, nor give too much of his heart to a mountain or a valley. For fear will rob him of all if he gives too much."

    No you have the extra option of having a Cd as well when you buy it. And i've installed ATW over 7 times so far so id agree with the othe rposter who said it refers to the amount of times you can download it.

    And it is worth getting, the cmapaign is real fun, a nice challenge with different gameplay feel to it than RTw or BI.

    I have to say ATW is a good game, and the ERAS pack is worth it.

    Piracy is bad :( .
