I meant "do" as in "do count it as the same game".
Turns out pretty academic either way, because it doesn't seem to be sold anywhere anymore.

Collectible/Sammlerstück is a fancy name for saying a game is used, but is a special edition or is rare, I expect.
From my checking on the German version of the site, it seems you're correct.

Not sold anywhere indexed by the CSE, nor on Amazon.com, Amazon.co.uk or Amazon.de . On that note, we really need a search helper tool to filter the Amazon results. *Mad scientist thinking*

Yup, I can confirm your findings. (Frankly, though, I can't believe Blizzard isn't selling the Battle.net edition of this game themselves! ) However, it would appear Blizzard still supports both the original and the Battle.net edition.

Confirmed for both Warcraft II - Tides of Darkness and Warcraft II - Battle.net Edition. Therefore, unless the Battle.net version of Warcraft II, with its implementation of Battle.net (a still-supported multiplayer system), requires otherwise, this game can be approved.

Battle.net should not affect the support status for this game, since it is a separate system in and of itself. Blizzard has been using the original BN as a de facto standard for their games' multiplayer until Starcraft II.

I assume that the expansion, "Beyond the Dark Portal" would be approved as well?

Yes. In fact, the archive on our FTP contains both.

If the game is approved, how do we get it?

We'll publish this one "soon", feel free to bump this thread again if you don't see it announced on the front page after a month.
