I am saddened, No Dark avatar for me

*cry*

Yes, I've turned emo. How is this related to GalCiv2? Well. I'm an avarage teenage person. Discovering the ways of life, which are rather odd I have found. So I'd much rather discover the universe. Well, not only discover. To exploit, explore, expand, colonize and eventually conquer it. And I love doing that. That is why I love Galciv2. (And I will love sins of a solar empire, also ). And quite some time ago. As I was browsing this site daily as I did back then. I found an announcement. An Expansion! Gasp!
I was euphoric! I couldn't wait to hear more about it! I was going to buy the limited/collecter's edition just like I did with Dread Lords. But then.. the sadness came.. the darkness..

It was only going to be purchasable online..

I cried for nights on. For as an avarage teenage person. I cannot and do not have the ability to pay over the internet. I don't. In no way. Not by credit card, not by paypal, not by wiring and not by sending it through the mail.

My interest in Galciv was lost. I just couldn't be bothered playing anymore knowing I would not be able to play the expansion. It has been, well. Since they announced it's purchasability, not on this site.

But I've returned, and this long story was useless, yet informative, with a question.

Have they/you brought it into store-retail now?
And if not, can I tie you to a chair and torture you star dock guys until you do?

Oh, by the way. I love you stardock designer/developer/tech people who make all these fantastic games. You've outdone Blizzard, westwood and pretty much everyone else. Can't wait till Society and Sins of a Solar empire.

GalCiv2 Gold has been at retail in the US for a month or so now. It includes GC2 and DA for $39.99 (MSRP), with a $10 mail-in rebate for owners of the original retail version of GC2, so they can get DA for the same price as the download-direct version.

I live in Europe. Is the same deal available?

GC2Gold is not available at retail in Europe yet, but we are working on getting it there. You may be able to import it though if any of your local stores will do that.

Mmm... Then will have to do with the tying-into-the-chair-and-torturing option Thanks for the comment anyway. Hope you'll have it here soon
