We have done a lot of testing with the downlaod speed and I can get you numbers if you wish. My connection is fast but Mark Adams, one of the guys that does the art has a very slow Satelitte connection and I could find out teh downlaod time and speed he had. But I don' know he did it several times in several tests and it worked fine.

Really for the most part this is akin to what was done to the original Smolensk Campaign: the map was enhanced, the OOB tweaked and then it became downloadable for free from Glenn's PzC site.
You know that is the beauti of this thing Marq.
I was approached fof a map extension for a mod, some I had resisted doing because we knew there was a full battle here and somethng that could be completely researched and a new game created.
And while the map overlays closer than any other two games, nobody complained when we absorbed the T41 map and added a l;ot to make Alamein.
Nobody has pointed out the common map in Rzhev 42 and Moscow 41. And the Battles are of course completely different.
But there is no denying that the Full game is a complete package and like any title in the series, players are free to purchase a copy or stick with the mod.
But there is a LOT of Game in this title that is not part of the addon mods and stuff that the Scn deigner said he couldn't do without a fair chunk of the Kursk map added to the older Kharkov Map.
