I can't believe they are releasing it in Europe before the United States! Everybody knows we're more important!

Cellerto from California, USA posts at RoN Heaven that he was called today (Friday, May 16th Cellerto's time) by the local Electronics Boutique where he had preordered the game – his copy is in-store and ready for pick-up!

I'm sorry, I thought it was clear from my flag that I live in Europe. Germany to be precise.

So far I like it. It's a bit too fast for my taste (even on the slowest setting, buildings and units are produced in no time... it seems to me it's faster than any other RTS out there), but from what I've seen, you should be able to mod it.

Edit: When playing a random (?) map, it is way slower.... I suppose the speed setting is overwritten when playing "Conquer the World"

Can't comment on the AI yet, I've played on a low difficulty setting so far. It doesn't seem to use any of the more advanced options (generals, spies,...) but maybe (hopefully) that's an effect of the difficulty level.

A word of advise: If you don't like RTS at all, don't get it. Despite the advenced features, it's still purely RTS.
