It is now available in the UK. Or at least my pre-ordered copy from Gameplay.co.uk was waiting for me when I got home from work today - one day before the official (revised) release date.

From what I'm hearing, both by browsing
the boards and listening to salespersons
ar local stores, Conquests should be
coming out in Holland and Belgium by the end
of November.

I finally got it last friday, I couldn't wait for this expansion, but it wasn't available here in Dublin untill the 20th (it should have been released a week earlier). I'm well into my first game now and so far I love the enhancements! I don't really like playing scenario's, but the improvements to the epic game are good enough to make this title worth buying.

I also got the follwing neutral answer from an Amazon.uk service rep after I complained that the game has not shipped despite pre-ordering it (what's the point of pre-ordering when you have to wait for 1-2 weeks after it is released

"Please note that although "Sid Meier's Civilization III: Conquests
Expansion Pack" was released on November 21, 2003 the current
availability estimate of this item on our website is 1-2 weeks."

This is the dumbest thing I heard and the first diassapointing experience with Amazon.*

So long...

bol.com (dutch version) says it's released today (28th). We'll see. I pre-ordered it a month ago, and they've been delaying it time and time again.

'Civ IV reloaded'? Oh, maybe I got confused with a certain film...
Ah well, in the meantime, since I have to wait for you guys to get your Civ IV copy, I'll just play vanilla C3C
