    I have just bought Supreme Commander Gold from Direct2Drive. Does anyone know how I can get the instruction manuals for both games? Thanks.

    I can't say for certain, but generally the readme.txt file contains that type of information, such as where the manual can be found, what the minimum specifications are, etc.... It might already install the manual when you install the game. Check the program group and see if the shortcut to the manual is there. Otherwise, my advice is that you should contact Direct2Drive. I am certain a PDF of the manual exists and that you should be able to get access to it.

    There's a website I found which had download links for all manner of game manuals in pdf format. I found the Overlord UK manual for my copy that way. Try googling Supreme Commander manual in google and see what turns up.

    Apparently, Supreme Commader: Forged Alliance contains the manual on the disk. I do not have it the disc since I got it from Direct2Drive. Any suggestions?

    Well I found out that Direct2Drive is a bad site, but THQ on the other hand is great. I called THQ and they are sending me a manual free of charge. Thanks for all the feedback.
