Seems I'm the first Victorian in Russia. Just got the game from 1C sales office, and as the clerk had to go to the storage room to fetch the disks (and it wasn't yet on the stand), I deduce that I'm the first lucky fellow in the whole mother Russia. Congradulations are accepted.

That sounds like a pirate copy, as Snowball is still localising the Russian version.

Me want, me want!

Oh, and BTW, pozdravlyayu! :)

EDIT: A translation from the link provided by "the first Russian":

"On sale from November 14 onwards.

Contents: two discs in a "double case".

Victoria is a joint release of 1C and Snowball Interactives of the historic strategy game from Paradox Entertainment.

On the territory of Mongolia Orcs from Mars have landed, taking over all our gold mines. It's imperative to build 100 military units and bomb their space station asap!

The text you have just read has nothing in common with the game you are holding in your hands [I wish :( ]. If you are very dissapointed, please let us continue: Victoria is a strategy game on a global scale from the Europa Universalis series, the continuation of EUII [?] and a further development of "Day of Victory" [HoI?].

Before you lies the whole world, in your hands you have as much as you were able to conquer and hold on to. Playing as one of the Great Powers [incorrect, not necessarily...], including Russia, Prussia, Great Britain and the Ottoman Empire, you have the task to lead your nation through the century, always changing the map of the world.

There are six fields in the game in which a leading position can lift your country to first place: diplomacy, politics, economics, military affairs, colonization and technology. There is not one recepy for victory, there is, however, a recepy for defeat.

If you have played Civilization and felt that you are capable of more, if you have thought about what place on the map Russia would have had if WWI had gone differently, Victoria is made for you!"

Yeah.. I had forgotten. Snowball usually releases an english version of the game in local shops at the release date. Which is very smart, and make sure they beat out all pirates.

I have Snowballs Russian version, how do I convert it to english so I can play the silly thing. Six years here and I still can't read the language well enough to not get headachs trying.

English patch over the clean install should de-russify the game well enough (except the map). If the map is an issue, then you ought to buy original version. Snowball has those too. Oh, and you should have started your own thread - this one is obviously quite long forgotten.

Yes I tried that, but wording is now garbage. Did it successfully last year but forgot how I did that. I can read Russian phonetically so I don't care about the map. Just hate to buy things twice.

Not forgotten any more! In response to the question, I have no idea. I was just reading through some threads and came across this one and felt it deserved a pointless reply :D
