The manual that I ordered did contain pilot notes. It had detailed drawings of the spitfire, the history of the spitfire and well as info on starting and taking off, tatics and deflection shooting. I dont know what is going to be put in the collectors edition. I just ordered it because it was the same as in the photo of the collectors edition supplied to us.

A booklet with after action reports from the war. Say, twelve two-page anecdotes.

To make people interested in history (adds a lot imaginatively to the game).

The special edition is still being made and before putting money down ... again ... for a CE I hounded EBGames Australia, they've confirmed they're receiving CE, but who knows. I'm pinning my hopes on Luthier's post a few days ago.

Just to let you guys know that we didn't want to respond here until we learned what was going on ourselves.

I still don't have the full details, but I can tell you some things for sure right now:

1. The Special Edition is still being published

2. I'm not sure about regions where it will be availability at retail outlets vs online ordering, but at least the online version should be available worldwide.

We'll keep you updated. Rest assured, we really appreciate your support and we are really hoping you'll get what you want, and not just in terms of goodies!

I hope your (and Luthier) are right. My respect for Oleg and his team is boundless, but as publisher I doubt Ubi could organise a bit of straight loving in a brothel!

Cheers!

I want to voice my desire for a CE.

I can confirm this. There will be a Collector's Edition. Don't worry!

... at least in Germany.

The final release date is March 24th, 2011. I don't think that something will change this. We have USK (German PEGI equivalent) and everything is in production. Everything will be fine.

I think a trip to Kew may be in order for me. ;)

way to go Moggy! keep us posted, let me know us know what the costs are.

41sqn_banks, thanks for confirming that the 1940 manual inst directly what we're after. I picked up on that as well, and i'm aware how hard the Spit 1 Pilots notes are to find. It was primarily my purpose for buying the CE too.

Gents, i want like a copy of the CE too. But unfortunately like many of you, i'm apparently not allowed to buy one. Groupiesoft seem hell bent on turning this game into "Cliff of Bendover". All the frustrations in trying to get a CE have been ruining my anticipation for the game. I'm done chasing my tail and on this and would like to contribute to this excellent effort by Skoshi. This way atleast we get something, instead of nothing - to enjoy the game.

I bought these maps today.

The map of the 12 Group area is about 12966x8768px. I printed an A4 size area at 100% size on my lexmark printer at normal quality and it was quite legible. Writing and symbols similar size to my WAC chart.

I've got access to a A3 colour laser printer at work so I'll have a go at printing off a copy and see what they turn out like and report back. (It'll be about Thrusday till I'm back at work)

Cheer and Jcenzano thanks for the link!

PS

What sort of Kite Flying did they do atDymchurch Redoubt? What ever it was it was dangerous to 10,000' !!!
