Can I buy the boxed set on July 11, digital download it on July 11, then receive the boxed set when it comes out a few weeks later?

I'm not sure if with Matrix is the same.

I believe at Matrix you can already and Slitherine is working on it, stay tuned, Iain will come back to this.

Is the pdf file and the included manual the same thing?

Some games come with modest reduced included manuals while the pdf is a lot flashier.

And lastly, what is the page count of the manual? I have a local printer that can do very economical prints in B&W if it's a pdf file.

The print manual and pdf are exactly the same - both are full colour. Page count is about 40 pages I think from memory. It's not huge as the in game help is so good.

Cool, if the game is actually complicated enough to require a print (excuse me while I laugh hysterically here for a moment

), I can always score a mere 40 pages on my own printer if I am in the mood for colour.

The beauty of some wargames that don't feel the obsessive need to go the War in the East route, is you don't spend a week reading how to play it, you merely take a long time mastering how to not lose WHILE playing it
