Wow...in-store pricing for a game without a manual or nicely printed cd/dvd case or anything?
I think I'll pass.
Now maybe if it was half the price and had some kind of trial period thing, I'd go for it without thinking. Anyways, hopefully it gets spread soon so I can see if it's actually worth spending any money on...

I've read a couple of reviews on gamerankings, the comments aren't enthusiastic, however i'll probably try it out, since i'm a fan of this kind of games.
Do u have some info on the protection used ?

It's basically the same as those old lame 2D TBS games like Panzer General, except with nicer graphics and sound effects. It's nowhere near as fun as Jagged Alliance because there is no character interaction or any RPG elements whatsoever. Really, who cares about this kind of game when World of Conflict is out?

apparently gamersgate has just made available a PDF Manual for download in the members area. A manual is a must for a game like this, anyone have a copy?

I had hopes for this but it is rather buggy, and a little silly. who's the nerd that does the voice over? Sounds like a right plank.

Can someone that has tried out this one tell me if units in this game gain experience during the fights ? And if you can carry over part of them from scenario to scenario in the single player campaing ?

Anyways from the videos I've been seeing, this game looks damned good for a TB strategy game. As long as it receives some polish(sometimes a prob with the indies) and isn't full of bugs, I can see myself spending many a night with this one. "One more turn..." and so on
