I see...

Thanks guys, well, i guess i will have to wait with buying until march then.

Great game btw! I still play FoW - love it because of the modding possibilities and it never plays the same twice.

I wish they could promote it more, its way better then CoH and Dow II imo.

It the multi-lingual European one that was released today, apparently. It has 5 languages (English, French, German, Italian and Spanish. i think but i can't confirm this)!!

The game was relesed in Russia as two seperate game and didn't include the Japanese as a multiplayer nation, and was only in Russian.

Try gamersgate if you really can't wait. A few people on the Digitalmindsoft forum (link above) claim they've gotten it to work. if it doesn't you'll be processed as a pre-order which you can easily cancel

it is indeed.

Apparently they made a mistake and allowed the download early (wasn't supposed to be released until 10th March)

Amazon says its out on Friday, and is selling it for £17.99! Just want to see a review first, then I will no doubt buy it if it gets a decent score.

Edit: Just seen these 2 reviews: GameOn UK - 8/10, PCGZine - 85/100 - Nice!

Eurogamer gave it 9/10! http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/men-of-war-review

Right thats it, im buying it!

'But then, Men of War doesn't need a slick Hollywood narrative to succeed. It does its stunning storytelling on the hoof and on the battlefield. It writes its dramas in blood, and fire, and bullets. Buy this game and you're buying a thousand spontaneous war stories. Buy it and you are buying that rare thing - a military RTS that doesn't have to bow and scrape in the presence of the magnificent Company of Heroes.

9/10'

Amazon has it up for March 15th for us release, for $29.99. Gamestop has it for the 16th, for same price. So US release should be here soon.

Someone said you can download the torrent. Not saying I did, but it is in english, and is awsome. Cant wait for it to come out, will be buying this one for sure.

I'm not sure but I presume so. Aspyr are the publisher so it might be worth e-mailing them and asking them if they have any agreed contracts with any shops.

Also, i know it's probably not what you want to hear but Amazon.com have it down as a preorder, so presumably they'll have it on release.
