German Gold Edition Question

from GalCiv2 Forums
Hi, I bought Galactic Civilizations German Gold Edition. First I didn't figure out how to install Dark Avatar, but I didn't mind since I wanted to play DreadLords first. But now I would like to install it. I uninstalled the game and tried to reinstall it with Dark Avatar. Could it be that in the German Gold Edition there is no DarkAvatar? (I wouldn't mind if I only could install it on English)

Possibility 1:

Yes, there is no version of GalCiv II Gold in german (yet), you only bought Dread Lords.

Possibility 2: You bought Galactic Civilizations I: Gold Edition and therefore you do not have the Expansions of part II ;)

No, I bought GalCivII.

And the CD (if you watch it with the Explorer) has the name "german gold cd2". But why selling a Gold Edition with no extras then the normal game?
Sins of a Solar Empire II

I think there is no Gold edition available in german. What does the box say the game was in?

The Box says only Galactic Civilizations II (But not Dreadlords).

Is it a Paradox release? They only have rights to DL. Kalypso will be doing DA/TA soon in conjunction with I-Mod but it's not done yet, AFAIK.

Yes it's from Paradox. Why do they call the CD Gold Edition? I'll never know

Wait a sec...
Kalypso is the same Publisher that brings Sins of a Solar Empire to european retail shelves?!
Does this mean that there will be a boxed GalCiV II Ultimate Edition retail version for Europe? (which would be totally awesome)
And what is I-Mod?

Yes, the same publisher as is doing Sins in Europe. I-Mod is a major modding site/group (they did a lot of weapon effects for TA) who are doing the German translation. I don't know though exactly how it will be labelled, or if it will be anywhere outside of Germany.

So there will be a Galactic Civilizations II Ultimate Boxed Retail Edition just for Germany?
