I just tryed to order Dominions 2 from Tuxgames and got the following message:
"These games are only for use with the Linux operating system"

Any other id�a?

Well, its normal that tuxgames say that, because they only sell games for that OS, but i guess that Dominions II release is multiplatform (one CD for all the platforms), so you could buy at tuxgames and save some money.
Maybe the developers could confirm that there is only one CD for all the platforms?

Sure, It's the same CD for all platforms.

Adressing Germans and our neighbors, who are looking forward to buy Dom2 I found a Online-reseller, who offers Dom2 for 49,50 EUR:
http://ixsoft.de/

For Europeans p&p range from 5,95 to 16,95 depending on where you live.
Date of availability: 6.12.03

Ouch, that's expensive.

I paid 40? in total including delivery, from Shrapnel, but then again, I preordered with a friend of mine to save shipping costs.

German here, too.

Sence Shrapnel are a US company so the custom vill add 25% tax + a fee. It will approximately cost $60 to get it here is Sweden. If i can get it for the same price from a EU reseller i avoid the Swedish tax and custom fee. See why i want it buy it from a EU reseller?

This isn't always true. If you order Global Priority from us and the package weight is under 16 ounces (1 copy of DOM II is 12 ounces) then it goes as documents and there is no customs fee.

If not, maybe there are some Germans around, who consider ordering it from Shrapnel, but do not comply with the methods of payment. If so, we could order several boxes at once and save some post & package money.

I just got the latest issue of a French mag (PC4War) with an ad in it for a (French) store that seems to sell Doms2. They do mail-order, and ship to Europe, if one believes their ad.

They have a Website (www.store4war.com), advertise the game at 49 Euros, and shipping inside Europe seems to cost 8 Euros for orders under 80. I've never ordered anything from them, and have no personal interest in them. Just providing a pointer to those in need...
