    Most excellent, my good man! I plan to be home those last two weeks of the year, so the timing is excellent.

    :D

    Looking forward to Panzer Corps and all its expansions. I even got a new retina iPad Mini so that I would have enough space...

    Looks like there's a sale on this and the IAP's are half price too, looks like how's my chance to grab the extra missions. :D

    Oh really? I am still missing like two of Battle Academy's expansions.

    Checking...

    How would you like it? Every expansion IAP is on sale except the two I am missing: Rommel in Normandy, and Fortress Metz...

    Well in fairness, both of those are barely a few months old (weeks, in the case of Metz!) so putting them on sale for Xmas would be a little too much to ask of Santa... :)

    Cheers

    There is a demo version for you to try out, so it should be a question easily answered!

    Cheers

    Anyone who has or has played the expansion packs what order would you rate them, which ones are best or to get first. Thanks.

    Yeah so I just got this but it's a crazy Christmas season with so many games to try including- yes- panzer.

    So here's my question- I don't want to buy expansion packs now (I'm new to this!) but it looks promising and ill probably want to later.

    Any way to lock in this discount price for later?

    Right I just went ahead and bought operatition sea lion because it's set in the uk, but I'd still like anybody's views on the other expansions and which ones are best or worth getting.


    Edit. If nobody has any impressions I'm going to have to buy them all :eek:

    Just thought I'd make a quick post here to say
    "you know what, I freaking love this game!"
    I know it was expensive in AppStore pricing terms (plus the added expansions) but boy do you get some very good value for money and lots of playtime out of it.
    I'd say battle academy, ascension and wrestling revolution are my top three iOS games of all time (in no particular order)

    Glad you are enjoying the game! We're bummed that the BA2 Early Access Programme can't roll out on the iPad, but you can be sure that we'll keep our iPad community informed when they can get involved :)

    Cheers

    Just bought this game, and I'm loving it quite a lot. It certainly has that Age of Empires/Empire Earth feel, and both those games were my absolute favorite PC RTS games of all time.

    Props for making such a well-done and perfectly working/balanced RTS, Slitherine. Now I have a reason to replace Autumn Dynasty, especially for multiplayer reasons.

    This is not a RTS game, it's turn based.

    I really hate this kind of trolling! :mad:

    You can affort an iPad? So you can buy a game!

    Nobody works for free! Or do you (or your parents) are working without getting paid? :confused:

    Just for your information, version 2.6.0 just went live today. It has a number of small fixes and optimisations, and also includes the Mega Pack which allows you to grab all the expansions for one price.

    Thanks to everyone playing the game - I think we showed the world that quality premium games have a home on the iPad :)

    Cheers

    That would be a nice package for someone who hasn't bought the expansions :D unfortunately for me I've already bought some of the extra packs :p regardless I'm still happy with them and this game is one that I'll always keep around, it's earned a place on the list in my head, of games that are so good you'll not forget them.
    On my invisible mind list I have things like gta3, yars revenge,Shenmue, and other great games I'll never forget. :D

    Well, you may not need the Mega Pack then, but you do get the thanks of a grateful developer :) Glad you enjoy the game. Hope we see you for BA2!

    Cheers

    Pip

    P.S. I always forget to ask people to re-submit their reviews for the new version, so I shall do it here! ;)
