What in essence they can do is now claim this new game as a new game and re-charge everyone for what really is the expansion

[quote who="Murteas" reply="28" id="2866241"]Why are people complaining about this? If you bought the game before the new year, you get this expansion for free (even though it is a stand alone expansion). You can then play either game War of Magic or Fallen Enchantress WofM. They are not abandoning W of M, they are just taking it in a new direction.[/quote] I don't see any complaints.. just a few people concerned with 2 main topics. 1. Is this the free expans

Reply to Fallen Enchantress, a new game in Elemental Dev Journals Elemental Forums

What always bugs me about stand alone expansions is that it always makes me feel buying the original was a waste of cash. Since the newer standalone pretty much includes all the goodies + new stuff so its like buying the damned game twice. Now since I get both coming expansions for free its rather a moot point in the instance. But in general as a consumer i dislike standalones for the reason mentioned above, a discount to purchase it for an expansion price for those who own the original rathe

[quote who="rwemack" reply="17" id="2865405"] Also, Frogboy, if you are still listening, I was curious to know where you prioritized equipping heroes relative to other objectives. Also, I was wondering if it is possible that the Spouse hero was accidently dropped from the AI's list of managed heroes? I was thinking this might be the case since it is a bonus unit that the AI gets for free. Another clue in this direction is that it doesn't seem to do anyt

I personally use drop box.. its free and easy. Step 1 download drop box. step 2 install drop box and get a free account. optional step 2.5 Set drop box to not start up with windows step 3. Put anything you wish to share into your drop box public folder step 4 right click on the thing you wish to share in you public folder and click copy public link. step 5 paste it to forums in a topic about your crash issues. repeat steps
