OM OMG OMG !!!11 CIV is here :D

The PDF manual is up on the main site. It's nice, but surprisingly amatuerish to be honest... like a graphic artist student made it for senior project.
It also gives Steam a rub down every page through the first 10 or so.
I am totally bringing my Laptop to work the day it unlocks :) either that or I am taking the day off :P

I wonder how much it costs to print those 230pages worth. I wanna kill those who decided not to release a book manual.

Probably plenty, considering that it's two hundred and thirty frickin' pages long. Wouldn't be surprised if it was a fiver a pop, which isn't great considering the laws of PC gaming mean that it'll be £20 retail in a couple of months time.

I would love to peruse the manual but don't want to sit at my PC to do it, I mean that is what it comes down to. Can't take it to the crapper, the dentist's office, work or whereever else.
But hey, the advertisements say they're saving trees (which aren't really a big deal anymore due to replanting regulations, but whatever), so it has to be a good thing right? Right?
Oh, they did it to save money? Nevermind then.
I wonder if Staples would print it... they supposedly will not print copyrighted materials, but this is sort of meant to be printed isn't it?
noooo, team building weekend next week. booo. someone break my legs!

My printer is ancient and was cheap when I bought it... I would want it to look a lot better than what I could do.

I don't buy their bull. More likely they wanna save money for the printing.
