Hello!
This game looks great but my local store never seems to have a copy. Is there any way that I can download the full Version (I have a broadband connection). I don't mind paying for the privelege...I just want to play this game!
Thanks

Thanks<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">This game is not out in stores and there is no Online download. You have to order it from the Shrapnel site. (Home of this forum)
As far as I know that is the only way to obtain the game.
Once you get it you will never regret buying this game. It is the best 4X game I have ever played.
It has been discussed before about ones wanting to be able to download the whole game.
But it is not possible as of yet. I doubt it will be period really.

It is an incredible game. Fantastic comeraderai amongst players. Lots of players. Easy to enter into a PBW game. You can choose to play against other novice players. You can choose the complexity of the game. You can... (runs out of breath!) http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Ehh... Rags. There IS a way to get a full Version without paying for it, but it's, of course, illegal.

FieldDoc: I'm quite sure nobody will let you DL the full Version, not even when you pay for it. That way the money won't reach Malfador. They deserve the money and they need it to get SE V on the road.

UK supplier (http://www.strategic-plus.co.uk/)

I got both SE4 and SE4 Gold from them. Not cheap, but delivery was fairly prompt both times and there's not much of an alternative.

I live in Holland, but I ordered my Version of Gold in the USA. It was cheaper to get it from there to here then via the UK supplier.
