I just found out about this game, so how do I buy it?

from Elemental Forums

I see we can download this game soon?   Where do I go to get it?  I see people mentioning somthing calld impulse...what is that?

Impulse is stardock's digital distribution platform - think steam, but you don't need to have impulse running everytime you start a game.  Currently they're planning to release Elemental a few day(s) early to their pre-order crowd.  I think the window on that is closed.  Elemental's street date is August 24th, so you should be able to order it from impulse then.

Is that true? Blast it. I was hoping to be able to preorder and play this evening.

Any orders placed before we start running the charge queue once the build goes live should get it tonight.
