Good morning from Germany.
Today i will buy Panzer Corps 2 directly in the slitherine shop.
When do you think what time it will be buyable?
Doesn't really matter, it will definitely be a great weekend.
Greetings.

No sorry my bad I meant heavier aircraft with multiple engines not just 4 engine bombers
Ah, I understand. No problems!
Anyways, today is D-day! Do we have an official time for when the game will be available on Steam?
*edit*
In another thread it was stated as 18:00GMT (with possibility of some delay due to hiccups and stuff). Good news!

Haven't read a game manual for about 25 years. Good old time though.

Here is to hoping that the “surprise” mentioned elsewhere in the forum is a release time earlier than 1800 GMT.

Steam says 6 hours.
I put my faith in Steam.

I thought the surprise was the Panzer comic mentioned in this thread:
viewtopic.php?f=464&t=97438
I might be wrong though.

6 hours from 10am UK, so 4pm? Little disapointed, why so late? I had freed up my day based on release date hoping, or rather assuming, it would be available to purchase from 9am or around that time.

My experince from Steam is that games tend to get released in the late afternoon/early evening (GMT). So this feels fairly standard.

6 PM GMT is the release stream, so my bet would be for that to be release time.

Indeed, but i don't plan to purchase via Steam. I am hoping to buy via my Slitherine account and then use my account tools to obtain a steam key and unlock it from there. I tend to do this to accumulate Slitherine loyalty bonuses.

Dear Forum in 4 hours, you and me and many others not reading this will start invading Poland.
I will probably be a bit late, as I just finish working around that time.
Most people who don't know Panzer General/Corps are all WTF about me invading Poland, I am glad that I have this forum and that I don't have to explain here that I don't plan to set up a 4th Reich or something like that.
