Dominions 3 will ship on CD with a 200 page printed manual. I saw Oblivion for $49.95 as a download?
Edit: Shipping is free in the continental US.

I'll add to Annette's post that we are giving a $7.50 discount on this title during the pre-order period instead of our usual $5.00, so this isn't really a big difference at all over the previous game. In addition, the previous game manual was only 134 pages, so this manual is a significan increase in pages.

$54 (-7.50) isn't a bad value, assuming its on par with dom2.

$54 is imho hard to explain as price for Dominions 3.
As Dominionsfan said even Oblivion costs only 45$ at Amazon.com and Oblivion was really hyped.
And you don't have to pay shipping with Amazon.com, i guess i have to pay another 5$ or so shipping fees.

Since i am such a huge fan of Dominions 2 i will buy Dominions 3 nontheless but i doubt that this huge price will give Dominions 3 many new fans. Probably only the die-hard fans like me will buy it. I wouldn't be surprised if the community even decreases instead of increasing, as it should be.

As long as it doesn't cost insane amounts of money to ship to Israel (like most US delivers cost :\), I'll probably buy it.
Otherwise I'll just have to wait for either prices to drop or some of the independant Israeli importers to get it. Or I'll just convince my friends to buy it, and play at their house and just wait for a year and buy their copy from them =P.
How much does shipping to Israel cost anyway?

I have ordered it to be shipped to Israel and the shipping cost is $8.45.

For me the price is ok because of the printed manual and replay value. Also I think it will be nice if shrapnel will at some time make a collectors edition of dominions with all the dominions titles, fan made stuff and other goodies.

I just took a look at our shipping options to Israel. We offer two; the least expensive is USPS Global Priority Mail for $5.00.
