Digital Only - So i won't buy it. But AoD had a boxed Version, why shouldn't this have one, too?
Cost?
Save money by not having to print boxes and discs?

This too looks interesting. Now some ranting
Arsenal Of Democracy...Iron Cross...Darkest Hour....
Oh, why can't people just cooperate, realizing the final product will come out much better then. Yes...it will. I don't get it, if it's not for the money these projects are materializing, then why not simply cooperate.
No weird the nations you are portraying can't cooperate if not even you who portray them can. Yes, nations too perform better when united.
All three project will present us the same bugs and the same shortcomings, and all do the same unlimited crapload of work in the attempt to get rid of them.
The great mod-ability? How does it help when two++ are two other great projects out there that modders can and will spend their time with? And the low price? How does it help when there are two++ other projects out there we HOI maniacs can spend our time with?
Anyways, I hope these three HOI-projects, and the ones that have not yet been announced i presume, are willing to cooperate to some degree in the future.
As much as I like having box and discs, I have to agree that it would be a waste of money for them to distribute any way otehr that digitally. Love mod34 so might cross the line and get my first digital distributed game when this is released. Actually will get Darkest hour as it seems it will be released first.

Not if they are useless. Most provinces should have SOME sort of value - even pure MP. I hate useless provinces.Very nice looking cover
