What does the game physically come with?
 
Iv been considering purchasing dominion 3, but I am wondering what it comes with. On the dominion 3 page it just says that a cd is shrinkwrapped to a manual. Is this true, or does the cd actually come in a dvd/cd case? Not sure how much I like the idea of a loose cd strapped to a instruction manual.

Perhaps someone has some pictures?

I didn't get a dvd case or box with mine - it's a manual and a cd basically.

And a hug from Kristoffer.

My manual and the attached CD came in a box. It's not a loose CD. It's in a plastic sleeve, attached to the manual.

It may come in a brown corrugated cardboard box. It may come in a bubble-wrap lined manila envelope.

My CD was not so much "loose", as enclosed in a paper sleeve. It's not entirely hard to move it to a wallet, or to a spare jewel case, as you personally prefer. ;)

There's no Dominions 3 box or box art. I still think the Shrapnel page might confuse someone, since the manual's front page is shown on a box-shape. It's probably a good idea to get some holder for the cd so that you can store it in a bookshelf or something.

If you're worried that the cd will break in the post, it's safe inside a 300-page manual that's thicker than some books. It lists all spells, magic items and nations that existed when the game was published, and most summons.

Yes the picture on the website is quite misleading, its why i came here to ask. I find it odd that an expensive game (in Aus $) doesnt come with even a dvd case, most indy games come with a nice case so it looks great in a collection.

My manual and cd did come with a box. well... parcel-box I mean.

Hmm... I think the manual itself is a good piece and worth collecting though it is a little obsolete now. I always dream of an updated version and will even purchase another cd just for it.

My CD came in a paper sleeve tucked inside the manual and the whole thing shrinkwrapped. Since the manual is 300 pages that amounted to better packaging than I would have gotten in any other form. But that was a LONG time ago so it might have changed.

It is like Gandalf says, but if you give an extra ten bucks, you'll have a whip and a sacrificial knife
