Hello,


Based on the feedback we got from customers and the wargame community, we have finalized our plans.  We will release WWIIE on December 1st, 2014.


The game will be released without paper products for now, but will eventually have a registration card, Reference Card and Manual.  Cost of the game is $50 to download from Drop Box, and $10 for paper products when the game is complete.  Method of payment is paypal, check or money order.  No distributors until the full game is complete.


The Schwerpunkt web site will be modified to include these details soon.  There is no shipping and handling fees for download of the game from DropBox, just the $50.  Paper products will be sold separately at a later date, and will have a shipping and handling fee.


WWIIE has 51 scenarios now, and will eventually grow to 102.  The remaining scenarios will be made available through Schwerpunkt for free download to customers who have purchased WWIIE.  The game mechanics are complete, only the remaining scenarios need to be developed and tested.


Thanks,

Ron


PS The download from Drop Box is very easy.  When you supply me with an email address, Drop Box will notify you with a link to the area to where the WWIIEsetup.exe file resides and give you permissions to download.  Once the download is complete, then double click on the WWIIEsetup.exe file and it is a standard install from there.

I know this is a silly question, but will the download version have a PDF version of the rules?

I've never played a Schwerpunkt game before but this is a day 1 purchase for me. Can't wait!

@smittyohio:  The rules and design notes are Help files and are accessible from the Windows menu.  However, the Design Notes are only filled in for the 51 scenarios that have been developed and tested.

BTW, we are taking orders for WWIIE at the Schwerpunkt web site.  Just click on the Purchase icon at http://schwerpunkt.wargamer.com/

We had a little glitch here.  We have changed our web site so that orders for WWII Europe no longer has a shipping and handling fee.  We have deleted the orders we received.  If you were one of these, you will have been notified.  Please resubmit.

Now we are ready to accept your orders!

Thanks for your patience,
Ron

Hey Ron. I see you're taking orders now but the game won't be ready for download until Dec. 1st. Is this correct? I got no problem ordering now, just not sure when downloading can begin. Thanks.

Taking orders now, but downloads will probably not start until December 1st.
Unless we get ready earlier.  No earlier than 11-28.

Sounds like this game is getting close, down to any day now....never played any of the these games before, although was at one time very tempted by the Middle East game.....I certainly will be watching to see what people think about it and how it differs from all the other games like this out there.
