Every gallon of gas matters. Every round might be irreplaceable as your travels take you far from friendly lines and into a storm of secrets and maneuvers unknown to all but a handful of combatants.

I had the same problem, but I was trying to download the game in a spot with bad internet connection. Once I tried again in my home network, it worked fine.
I really appreciate the ability to just… be a woman and it not be a big deal. The stories that focus on historical accuracy over letting me just be my gender really bum me out. Like, I get it, but this story shows how it can be done just fine without derailing anything.
