It is a bit of a subjective compliment, but truly: Cameron has done an amazing job writing the best manual I have seen in a long long time. It is very complete and detailed. As you can already see here in the tome of contents (PDF).
Also a big thanks to the publisher Matrix Games for doing the staggering amount of excellent DTP work.
Now… detail is important, but at a 300+ page size it is maybe even more important that the manual is well written, witty at times and has 100s and 100s of screenshots. I can already disclose that is the case. More news to follow on the Barbarossa manual in the near future.
Best wishes,

1.7 The differences between DC1 and DC2
If Cameron absolutely feel the need to include this out of historical interest, then there should probably be a section on the differences between DC2 and DC3 as well :-)
(Or is the engine differences between DC2 and Barbarossa not significant?)
Sharp observation sir! Agree completely of course. Thanks for pointing it out.
Will this be available as a printed book like other Matrix offerings?
Yes it will. It should be similar or the same to for example Grigsby’s War in the West manual format.
best wishes,
Vic
