My friend wants me to get this. Whats the learning curve on this game for someone experienced with RTSs (warcraft, SC, warhammer)? I heard it's pretty complex.

Did you know that Stardock's office is in the Detroit area? I had no idea until after I'd purchased the game and went to their website and looked for their contact info.

Yes this is brick and mortar only. The display in the store has regular price on it ($39.99) and no mention of any markdown, but if you price scan the game (there was a scanner conveniently behind me at my local store) it comes up as $19.99! Grabbed one and was out the door. They had 4 other copies on the shelf here in Lansing MI. This is a great deal on a great game (Just voted IGN and MaximumPC Game of the year) If you want one RUN to your local Target ASAP, before they are gone or the price goes up.

Finally got around to running by Target and picking this up.
Surprised they still had it on sale. Didn't have to scan it, was marked down to $20 on the shelf. Looks like they might have had some other games on sale if people want to check it out. I didn't bother looking at what else they had, though.
Will have to check out online play when I get a chance. I had, err, "acquired" a copy before (also, kind of OT, but I'd be interested to know how many people are buying this because they pirated the game and enjoyed it) and have some practice with single player, but it was v1.0. Sounds like the newer patches really change the gameplay, so I'll have to get the latest patch and practice a bit first.
