N? Download only, I believe. Which means, it will be available to buy from your hotel room in Tanzania, if thats where you have an internet connection.

I wonder what types of changes, revisions, etc, they make to the came this one month before the release.

[Dominus]

Those Central Asian units bteter pwn *central asian*

[Cyrus the Virus]

Hmm there's 6 factions now right? From the beginning it was four?
Or maybe it was 4 "new" factions..

[Flotch]

where do you see 6 factions?

edit : ok, in the post above....so I guess it is just a mistake, because everywhere else it is said : 4 new factions...

[Cyrus the Virus]

Yeah maybe, Think I've seen it somewhere else except for wargamer.
But yes, 4 factions is mostly what I've seen aswell.
Perhaps its not announced?
