I look forward to when this thread sinks to page 2 and stays there so this terrible Def Leppard song gets out of my head. Sorry. Tag, you're it.

I'd get it if it had even a beginner A.I...so I will wait and then get it when it has some form of A.I.

Kissing all my other games goodbye, as this bad boy is going to be all consuming.

I said earlier that I would wait. Apparently I lied. The $100 U.S. price seemed reasonable to me. Have played WitP-AE extensively, so complexity is okay, even new complexity. I don't like to play Axis, so the allies will do well as I wade or tumble into all this. I am glad I've lived long enough to see this game... Been following/lurking on the WIF forum for 8? 9? years. Glad to have it. It downloaded quickly and looks fabulous, darling...[:D]

I'm completely new ti WiF.  I've read about it enough, but never knew about it when it first appeared. (pre-internet days).  I was pretty Avalon Hill centric back then.
 
I'm happy about the included books.  It will make for good bedtime reading.  I love my Kindle Fire, but pdfs are still a bit of eyestrain for me.

Yep. Been waiting for a computer version of WiF for 20 years. Getting the maps too. Might as well. I want to support Steve and Matrix and they look fantastic.

Honestly, with the amount of cash I've spent on dubious stuff over the years (grog, fast motorbikes, faster women) it's really not massive money.

I'm watching the video tutorials now. Very well done, Steve.

I have managed to get the game promised as a birthday present!![8D]

I will have to wait some weeks, though.....

I shall pass because I do have a life and this game would take up most of it. Good luck to you all who purchase it.
