its not about when you ordered in this case. Its the shipping time coming from America. I am in the same boat, got the same email. When i logged on to Amazon's website it still even says delivery after the 25th. So the date for me hasn't changed, and with no grace period i will be unable to play for approximately 7 days

Another Aussie based guild on Nadd's Sarcophagus - Imperialism. Based in Sydney. What i want to know is with no grace period and boxes not arriving till after the 25th, what happens to our playtime?
