I am in desperate need of HELP and hope some of you kind TL folks can save my day. Thank you very much in advance!

I recently purchased the digital download version of HotS because I couldn't wait any longer! My order was in "queque" for what felt like an eternity and now that I can finally download the client, it is the german one and I can't seem to change that!
I am from Austria so german would be apropriate, but I MUCH prefer the english voice acting! Is there any way to get the english client?

Here is a screencap of my account to clarify a little more:

The big blue button is a link to download the german client, while "weitere downloads" (more downloads) only brings me to a menu where i can select a language for a SC2 client. Do I have to download an english client before I can even download the english HotS one?

I am dieing to play the game, but i can't even start downloading the proper client! Please help me, dear TL community!! D:

Please note that I have the english client for SC2 installed, but used the cd-key that was delivered with my german version of the game. Maybe Battlenet thinks that I have the german version of the base game so it wouldn't give me anything else for the addon?

Edit: Or is the actual SC2 client really a SC2+HOTS client?

I believe you can change your language settings once you have loaded up the game.

So I should download the german HOTS client? This seems highly unlikely to me, seeing how all the voicetracks of the various langeuages make up a substantial amomunt of data. You think that the game would then download the chose appropriate ones?

I can't say for sure, as I have not experimented with choosing non-English languages, but I know the option is there. Perhaps someone else can comment more

You can choose a non-English language. It will then restart the game with the appropriate language. I did it with English -> Korean on my laptop.

There is only one client for both WOL and HOTS. Log into bnet, then there is an option to change language inside there. Then the game will exit and if you don't have the German files yet the launcher will download them, similar to getting a new patch.
