HI ...
I just bought the CD version via pre-order.
I was the first? If a positive response: Italy-USA 1-0 ... eh ;) eh
Seriously, I have to ask a questi :kiss: on

When I will install the version sold on CD, my previous version purchased by downloading an activation code will be different. What will happen?.

Let me clarify that I possess two activation codes for my two computers.
thanks

Both versions are indentical, except that they have different activation code. You can use both activation codes with every version.

Thanks!

They are digital copies of historical maps, not game maps.

I think it's beautiful, for the first 10 or 100, get an autographed copy.
(If I'm not in the Top 10, then goes to the first 100 ... heh heh)

"Four complete mods for the game produced by members of the development team"

Heh Heh Heh!
I just ordered my copy of Scourge of War Gettysburg. I also have two activation codes from the download version. One I have not used yet. It is for future use when I get my super computer. Question: Do I just install the cd version over the downloaded copy on my computer to get the extra stuff? What about the activation code? I don't need two on one game? How about if I deactivate the downloaded one and install the CD version. Would I then use the old activation code? Or use the new code? Then my personal accountant, "wife" can download the game on her computer and use my activation code on her computer? Yes?

The version on the CD (minus the bonus content) will be available as a patch. It will be the same exact version of the game. The only difference from what you are playing now is that there is manual activation and it starts up much quicker. It will be version 1.101 because so little changed. The activation codes are the same. So you can save them up for your super computer if you want. You can only use one at a time in one folder.

So if you just have one copy that you are using, I suggest just saving the code that comes in the box and installing over your current install. It should already be activated when you are done.

I thought this game was in development and there would be on going upgrades free of charge for those who bought the game early online.
Of course and no one said something else.
the ability to do a Manuel install which I have had several issues with the online install code thing.
Re-read Norb's post. You don't have to pay for it.
