I tried to download the demo but all I get is a form to fill out.
I'm not interested in filling it out,and the download doesn't happen.

Can you provide a direct download? Thanks

Hi Skirmisher:

Hmm, I just tried it and it seems to be working. The demo page does bring up a form to subscribe to our email list but the download kicked in after a few seconds (you do not need to do anything with the form).

Please try it again. I know sometimes when I download from a site that has a built in delay every so often it won't click but usually a refresh does the trick. If you're still having problems I believe you should be able to find the demo on some game sites.

It isn't working. It says download will start in 8 seconds, but then nothing happens. I'm having the same problem with the new SPWW2 upgrade. Can't download that either.
Ok I'll check around see if I can get it someplace else.

Maybe not being able to download it is for my own good. lol.

Many sites include a "if the download does not begin, click here" because some browers prefer to block automatic things along that line.

There is no option like that. No matter what I click nothing happens.
I've never had ANY problem downloading from shrapnel before... Thats why this is kinda surprizing.

Im sorry, I meant it as a suggestion for them.
Altho you might look and see if the "options" menu for your browser has something turned off

Here Skirmisher:

Try that link. It is the download link pulled from the page's source.
