BigJMoney - Where in North Carolina do you live? (Not that I recommend a pick up this week. Many of us haven't showered or slept - it's kind of like Origins game con on the third day).

I live right around the beltline in Knightdale. If I can come, I'll be sure to bring a video camera for incriminating evidence, muahahahahahahaa.... Anyway, when I found out Shrapnel was in Cary, I was like, "that is so friggin cool!". There is also a guy around Cary named the War Gamer or something. I can't remember, because I've only recently begun to look at war-gaming, but apparently this guy has been a well known internet resource for wargaming for like the past 14 years or something. Lives right in Cary. Maybe you know exactly who I'm talking about and I'm just making a fool of myself, hehe.

Yeah, I'd LOVE to come take my copy off you guys' hands. It's probably a 30 minute drive for me.

Ahhh...but we moved to the outskirts of Wilmington last year...couldn't resist the call of the ocean

I'm not sure who War Gamer would be. There are so many in that area. One of Gary Gribsby's team lives in our old neighborhood. And a good friend of ours who is an artist for Ubisoft lives nearby. There's also a man who runs an online board wargame store from Cary...Let me know if you find out.

I was somewhat confused by that until I read the conversation in the last few posts... my friend lived in Cary, NC., so for all I know, one of the Shrapnel guys might have dropped it off in his mailbox to save shipping.

He has been spending the entire weekend sending us annoying little zingers via email. "Did you know that Sauromatia is not the same thing as early-era C'tis?" "I really like what they've done with 'Enigma of Steel' Ulm, don't you?"

The bastard.

I can guarantee we didn't drop it off...we WERE in Cary, but as of last July we're now two hours drive away. He must have recieved his order via US Postal Service on Saturday, since the first shipments went out Friday.

OUCH. Not only can I not pick it up, but you are leering and jeering at me from my favorite spot in the US! Not fair!

I love Wilmington. The downtown area is beautiful and there are so many beaches nearby. If I could live where I'd like, there's no question it would be in Wilmington. I do miss those days when there was free public beach access at Carolina and Kure, though. Too many people around now to have that. Oh yeah, and when you could drive on Kure at night hours (for free!) as well. Those days are sorely missed. I blame all the people from the lesser states, wanting to move in and ruin our lifestyle.

... the anticipation... wohoo!

there's just one thing that feels wrong about this: sitting in scandinavia and having to wait for a swedish game to be shipped all the way from Wilmington (which i'm sure will turn out to be the place in us with the slowest post office).

oh well, i have some very busy weeks ahead at work, so it's maybe just as well.

-and gz to illwinter for what looks like a very worthy sequel. yay!

You can also order the game from the UK now. www.tuxgames.com
They are selling Linux games, however the Dominions 3. copy what they are selling is the same, what we can buy from Gamer's Front, IE. all installation versions will be on the CD. [Windows, Linux and Mac]

I just received notice of my order shipping. I ordered on May 18. It might be here tomorow.

Are you sure about that?

PashaDawg · #98 October 2nd, 2006, 09:12 AM

Well, that's the way it worked with Dom 2. (At least the Mac and PC versions were on the same disk.)

Tuxgames.com (linux game online-store) sells Dominions 1 and 2. and they are going to sell it Dominions 3 as well

Tuxgames
They are located in UK, so things like extra taxes to us european can be avoided.

Well I've already pre-ordered the game, just like many of my friends. I still know some people who plans to order the game after they've seen the demo. So can I say to them that they can order it from tuxgames? I mean, they will only have a linux version, or there isn't a separated Linux version of Doms 3. at all? I guess there will be only 1 master disk with Linux/Windows/Mac install files.
I just only want to tell them about the site, because they could get it much faster from the UK then from the US, if they decide that they would like to order it as well.

All three installations are one CD. There was no separate printing for Linux or Mac only.
