OK, so I seem to get back in strategy gaming. I got Gary Grigsby's World at War for $3 with a magazine and loved it. I also grabbed a copy of Panzer General III (I seem to have missed it) from the garbage bin.
But then I decided to enter deep waters and try one of the most complicated simulations I've ever seen: Steel Panthers. And here's the best part.
Matrix, the producer, sells it ("Steel Panthers: World at War Generals Edition") for 67 EURO.
In my country, Nicolas Games sells it for 20 zl, which is about 4.5 EURO. Shipment to USA is 42 zl, so it's about 15 EURO total.
In the Nicolas Games' version you get the English game with English documentation. So, there's no reason for guys from abroad not to buy this.
I myself am delighted. The game's a real gem, and I bought it dirt cheap ("big" games cost around 100-130 zl around here). It has a proper serial code and I registered it at the Matrix Games site.
Many times I heard people talking about reimport. "You have to wait because we need to translate the game. And we need to do it, so we can give you a lower price. If we don't translate it, the price will have to be the same as abroad, as the publishers fear reimport." It seems that in niche genres it doesn't work this way, and I'm delighted :D
