I just tried to purchase GBM for Ipad and could not. Your requirements page indicates a 4.1 level OS, but the Apple Store says it requires 6.1 OS!!! What gives?

Sorry about this - it is a typo. The iOS version required is 6 or above. This means iPad 1 users wont be able to play unfortunately but we had stability issues on older OS versions and did not want to take the chance that anyone who bought it had any issues.

I really think you should have let us know this earlier, rather than building expectations.

Looks awesome... Aye sire, your knights paye up gladly...

iTunes rates Great Battles Medieval as 9+ for 'infrequent mild violence'... Cupertino clearly got the wrong 100 Years' War, lol!!

Poitiers here we come...

Any gameplay videos/screenshots available (other than those provided on the App Store)? Can you guys upload some because I'm not sure wether to wait for Rommel in Normandy or buy this game and get more for Rommel.

Looks like an excellent implementation of he PC version, well done!

I notice that the in app purchased do not work at the moment (says "You need internet access to buy items. Check your connection."). The connection is of course ok (wifi) and works with all other apps, safari etc. and the rather annoying game centre pop up.

Does it really mean "not ready yet" ?

They definitely work as we can see the store items selling. Can you post your system specs and OS to the support forum so we can investigate? Thx!
