Lexor: Now there is no excuse for GOG - please give us Age of Wonders manuals... :(
Best I can do to help is the Age of Wonders Manual Addendum 2.3 (direct PDF link)

Pretty sure they said they can't... they don't have the license to distribute the Age of Wonders manuals.

Lexor: Thank you :)
My pleasure :) There is also a quickstart guide pdf located in the games directory

Unfortunately not. They have to negotiate everything separately: the game itself, the manuals, expansions, soundtracks, other bonus content... If all the rights are owned by the same party then it can be easy to get permission for all that stuff at the same time, but sometimes (as with the EA expansions) the rights are distributed among different parties. In this case, I think the Age of Wonders manuals don't belong to the same company as the games themselves.

:/ So we are now on lost position it seems.

I could agree with any expansions licence, even soundtracks... but manual.. how can you play the game, know its rules without it :D It should not be treated as "bonus". In some cases, no manual = no fun at all.

I love GOG. I would rather see GOG go down than replacementdocs, in terms of how it will affect me long-term. If replacementdocs doesn't come back, this will be the worst disaster in gaming that has occurred in the last decade or more

Thank you. Glad to see them back. It would be shame if such an exceptional site disappears from net.

I agree, much rare data would be lost.
