If all goes smooth, around 16.00-17.00 hour British Summer Time (BST). But don`t flame us when it is a bit later, we are preparing the shops and want to check for 100% and make sure all is perfect and tested before we give the green light, but normally by this evening Afrika should be coming your way...

So I still have time to get back to France and DLC '40!

I do not know if it's because of the 1.10 AI changes, but last night my poor army got severely hit by French air force in Reims (using deducter's equipment mod helped it happen, but I am not sure they were so inteligent before).

I have to contact my lawyer. I wonder if it is possible to sue Lordz for severe prestige damages... :mrgreen:

What do you mean sold out on the first day of release?
How does one sell out of a game which is downloaded over the internet?
Slitherine needs to provide the gaming public with a better explanation than product sold out!!? :(

It hasn't even been released yet. :D Still a few hours to wait. I have to say though, the shop is a little confusing on that point!

It's not sold out. This message appears, because the date which is set for this day. Only there are no units in stock, because AK wasn't released yet.
So, don't worry there will be enough units in stock, but only later, today. Probably in a couple of hours. :wink:

The server has to be filled continously with data as each download drains on the bits and the bytes ...
Once download rate surpasses the refill rate bity and bytes can run out on the server and the game is sold out until
restocked....werent you aware of this ?



utter bullshit but sounds pretty plausible to any computer illiterate,does it?...
