Illegal? Buying from a website from a country which is part of the EU? Rubbish! LOL

Wow, it's exactly like the German one, only the text is different.

Btw, is it in black&white or is the original paperversion in colour. My german manual is fully coloured.

Big mistake in the manual:
Beliar spell "Draw Energy", the description says the following:
"Half of the Hit Points are drawn FROM YOU."

that should be "drawn from your enemy", otherwise it wouldn't be a very useful spell, would it.

As someone pointed out in other thread, a Czech site at http://www.bontonland.cz/ is actually also doing deliveries outside of Czech, so you can order from there. It will have a manual in czech language, but the add-on itself should be english.

And no, illegal is to copy the software from some 'warez' site, buying it from some official vendor is quite legal. Only difference is whether the vendor actually delivers outside of the country or not and this one, luckily does. And, what's best, they actually even have english language on their site

Are you sure the manual's in Czech? I know it says as much on the item's info page (well, sort of*), but it also says the game isn't in English when we all blatantly know it is. I've heard reports that the manual's in English too - or are the Hungarian and Slovakian versions different?

Okay, you're right. I emailed the manager and he responded (very quickly) saying they only stock copies with Czech documentation.

Also, for anyone that's curious, he quoted two weeks for shipping to the UK.

wow, $64 is kind of steep, escpecially when 40 of it is shipping, anyone from the US or california want to order it together and then we could split the shipping as it seems shipping doesn't raise when you buy more than one

Aye, very steep for an add-on. I won't do it unless it's the last option to play an English version before G3 comes out. I really want to play through it once will all English voices etc before G3.

The difference presumably being that with the Czech/International version the subtitles will be in English whereas with the Italian version they will be in Italian.

Forgot to add that I placed the order with that Czech vendor too. Didn't check how long it will take for it to get here, but that's a detail When I get it and try I can tell what the result was, unless someone gets it earlier and tries it before me.
