I have preordered as well and the funny part the only one complaining is someone who hasn't put any money down for the game.

I think before you complain you should see that those who have preorder the game and are allowed in the grenadier forum understand that JMM is making good progress and coming out with a second demo.

So preorder the game and join the ranks of the grenadiers as I have been waiting 5 years for the game I am ready whenever it is ready by JMM

 I am happy to wait for the finished game, JMM is rushed enough as it is and I'm sure he is doing his best. We have the demo and this is good enough to keep me going and to familiarise myself with the basics. Demo 2 will soon be available for those that pre ordered and this will help to tide me over.

Bonjour Messieurs,

I don't understand why to pre-order. Is it less cost? Quicker? Higher version?

I think you get to support JMM more so more future versions will come out as well as getting access to the Grenadier forum where you can get more information and discuss things in more detail.

I think most of us support JMM and we honor his years of work to bring us a simulation, not an arcade game.

He did something that i would have done if i only could lol

Just tried to preorder the digital download version and got this:

Credit Card Payment:
API Error:
Error reading default parameters definition (xxx/parmcom.webaffaires)

I guess I'll still wait then. :(

Bonjour Cpl Steiner,

Don't worry .... Personal experience: same thing happened to me on my pre-order (slightly different payment error, not so many words)  :cry: ....  

So, I tried again and this time I used a credit card (Mastercard), instead of a debit card (Visa), and ....  voila! .... It was accepted  :smile:

I don't know what ATOS is .... but I do know of other Grenadiers here who also had to submit multiple pre-orders because of 'payment error' rejections .... ;)

Seems like the credit markets are really not so good at lending after all!  :lol:

Also ... you maybe can find some help in the HistWar Les Grognards : Pre-order thread ....  :)

Cordialement, DoE

I don't know what ATOS is ...

ATOS verifies credit card purchases.  An API error would indicate it got information in a format it didn't expect.  If I saw that on my transaction, I'd assume it was because I was trying to purchase something in Euros instead of the local currency which is dollars here.  I'd already verified with my bank that the credit card would accept a transaction in Euros and charge a nominal fee (about 3%) for the conversion.  I didn't ask if the transaction would work on my debit card as well.

If that's not it, I have no idea.  Perhaps Perrine would have more information.

Edit:  It looks like she did. :)

Pre-ordering really does not help the purchaser. I pre-ordered to give JMM some income based on my faith that he is doing is best to deliver an innovative game that is aimed at what I want. I am supporting an independednt game designer and maybe even helping him to finish things. It gives him some cash but also lets JMM know that people have faith in him and what he is trying to do.

Lets be brutally honest here, if LG does not get over the line we are unlikely to see anyone else try to develop a similar game within the next 20 years. None of the mainstream game developers won't. Any little thing I can do to help ensure its success is a small price to pay. I have blown a good deal of money on mainstream games that failed to deliver, I see a tiny amount of risk in placing some cash on JMM as an excellent thing to do. Good for him and good for us as a gaming community.

From my PreOrder Confirmation email:

"Les Grognards Collector Napoleon will be shipped in January 2010. However, once the game is available, you will be able to download and start playing "HistWar: Les Grognards"! "

I got to be #11 and I have a pretty clear timetable for the main release and even, apparently, a demo v.2 coming up.  I'm happy.
Plus also when the game does come out there will be continued effort by JMM for more development thereafter, now thats good value for money isnt it?
