I will definitely getting this. Perhaps at release if they removed Cascading Alliances in this one. Cascading Alliances has got to be the concept that made me rage the most... in any game.

They did. From Johan: "Also we changed chaining of alliances in a war. Warleader now only change during the first 2 months of a war."

EU4 will be released on 13th August.

There will be two versions: Standard ($39.99) and Digital Extreme Edition ($5 more), which controversially includes "several new events for the Muslim nations" (they are not in Standard version), among other cosmetic DLCs. You can see the details here. The preorder bonus is the 100 Years War Unit Pack DLC: "Adds new, unique unit models to the belligerent nations of the 100 Years War. Included are 11 infantry models for the warring nations, including England, France, Scotland, Burgundy and many more."

Preorder is available at a lot of places (paradox web shop, gamersgate, greenmangaming, etc) but you get 20% off at greenmangaming with voucher code

It is on Steam for pre-purchase with 10% off.

It seems there is a ton of DLC, most of it is free, but only if you do certain things like that referral.

Oy. Day 1 DLC, now? Some people aren't going to like that.

Meh, if you don't like day 1 DLC, you better give up on Paradox games.
