Boxed version?

Will this game be available in a boxed/hard copy version? I've had trouble with downloaded versions not installing in the past and prefer a hard copy of any game I buy these days.

It should be soon here:
http://www.matrixgames.com/products/396/details/Revolution.Under.Siege
It should cost some 13€ (some $20?) total more than electronic one (8€ for materials, and 5€ for transport).
They could include a real manual for the price..

Please a paper manual! The demo is not enough to learn the game.
I go to bed, without having played one turn.
I would read the PDF, but that's too heavy, as we must have the PC in the bed.
I will maybe buy an electronic book, that's light, to read the pdf...

Still no R.U.S., box or not, at Matrix.

Thanks for that Matrix link...

The price seems to be about several quid cheaper than I paid for the download from AGEOD - how come?

France:
Price is without tax (but 31€21 instead of shown 31€99, weird). But total (electronic ed: 37€33) is still 2€66 less than AGEOD's.
Box ed. is still not sold here. Edit: It is, at now.

From the Matrix forums:

Hi Everyone,

Physical versions are now available to order. Please note that they probably won't ship out until next week, but you'll have the download copy until then.

Regards,

- Erik


Note that you get to download the game, too, when ordering a boxed version, so it doesn't really matter if they don't ship until next week.

France:
39,99€ + 7,84€(tax) = 47€83 (no Ship&Handling added: included?)
but no printed manual:

Digital Express Edition: This edition comes with a full color printed box, full color printed CD (with your order number and serial number printed on it) and a PDF E-Book indexed manual.


Hope for a Standard Edition (grayscale manual) or a Collector's Edition (full color)?

PC4WAR starts publishing some french translated manuals (from original english).
Maybe a RUS one in future?

Most translation on the manuals here are done by the community. :)

So, the RUS one should cost less when PC4WAR would publish it! :D
Or, should I have to understand the community will sell a good one?
