As long as Scourge of War: Antietam in on the list I'll be happy.  :)

Ditto. I have the original Gettysberg, but haven't sprung for Antietam or Chancellorsville yet. If they make the Matrix sale, I'm all in.

Last year's sale info was posted around ~4pm so we may have a couple hours yet to wait...

Well, it's already the 22nd here, so I guess the sale isn't coming anytime soon.
Hopefully when I wake up tomorrow they'll post some nice list of actually useful discounts :P

Erik likely had to run it up the flag pole with the folks at Slitherine.

The Happy Holidays banner is up again, after briefly appearing earlier on, so there might just have well been some technical problem.

Where've you been?!
First time I see you post here in a long time :P

I've posted a couple of times recently, even started an AAR that turned into a bit of a dud (although I'll finish it in the weekend and early next week).

Edit: Iain just posted the sale will start on Monday as they were a bit too optimistic in terms of being able to change all of the prices by hand on time.

Here's Ian's post from the Matrix forums:

"Hi guys,

due to the sheer number of games we have now the task of updating the manually has become enormous. Its so big we've realized we cant do it by hand. We are working with Plimus to create an automated batch process to update the prices but this wont be available to run till next week. This means a short delay on the sale.

Sorry for any inconvenience guys."

Regardless of how good a PC game may be it will always have its detractors and no matter how bad a PC game may be it will always have its fans.

You'd think they'd have thought of this before announcing the sale.    :-\
