Those CD versions I have had access to work nicely with the expansion, and we expect no problems. We did not have access to an "illegal" Strategy First version of the game, but we have no reason to expect any problems. If our normal patches worked for you then Victoria Revolution should as well. If you had problem with the patches however you should check with us.

I know it's kind of off-topic but why Strategy First version is 'illegal'? I`m asking because that is the version I have and when buying it I was sure everything is ok with that.

IIRC Strategy First sold copies of Victoria and didn't give Paradox any money.

:eek: So I`m spending my money on the game also hoping I`m supporting the game creators so they can make another versions but in fact I`m giving my cash to some scammer?!?! :mad:
I suppose swearing on forum is illegal but that is how I feel.

I'm not sure what Flori is referring to. Strategy First's relationship with P'dox was not a happy one, but to the best of my knowledge none of the copies they sold were "illegal", if by that it means they were pirated. My copy of Victoria was bought from Strategy First when it was first released and it runs Revolutions fine.

Revolutions is built off of the 1.04 patch exe file. So anyone who has Victoria and can run 1.04 can run Revolutions too.

Not any more. When you buy Victoria, the income goes to P'dox. (and to whomever runs Gamer's Gate)

I'm very pleased to hear that someone with the Strategy First version can play revolutions just fine. :D

That was before my time so I may be mistaken but from what I hear Strategy First did not have the permission to distribute the game, and we did not see any of the money either. However we do support all versions of the game, after all it is not your fault what happened. Do our updates work for you? then you should be fine. Also, if we see that there is a problem we will get that fixed as well.

1.5 hours to go !!!

edit: does the game come with a PDF manual with some of the updated information from this expansion and some changes from patches since original release?

and this is thinking ahead a bit but what happens if I buy EU3 from GG next year - is there any way to get a printed manual sent to my house? I loooooove printed manuals and maps, and not the cheesy kind my printer would produce!

Ps I would pay extra for their production and shipment to my house of course...

Yikes! I had no idea that Strategy First was a problem. I'm glad you found another distributor though! What would life be like without Paradox games?..... boring!

Yes. It doesn't discuss in detail what's changed since the original release (no one would remember anyway! :D ), but it does walk you through the revised game pretty well.
