    It seems to be ten bucks on Steam. I haven't used a steam version of M2TW or Kingdoms but I have heard it presents problems with some mods. They're fixable but you may find it annoying getting it to work. Someone who knows more about that could probably correct me.

    On Amazon you can get it for 7.44 but one-day shipping will cost you extra..

    In GamersGate M2TW Gold Edition is listed €9.95. I think GG is better option than Steam.

    Agreed, that's what I have. It's $10 for Americans. Works just like you had the disk in.

    Alright, thanks guys, I'll try that. Anyone know if I have to uninstall my (disc) game first?

    That's a good deal. 10 EUR is more like 14 bucks. Why do Americans get a better price?

    Quick update: I'm in the process of downloading the game, but apparently my connection doesn't like whatever server it's downloading from as it seems to crap out every 300mb or so. It's very slow going, but I'm hopefully going to get the entire thing downloaded tonight before I go to bed and will then install the LTC mod/play the save sometime tomorrow.

    Again, really sorry for the delay. This is pretty much the worst possible timing I could think of.

    Cecil, your mini-names mod is no longer available, but I'm not going to wait any longer to fight this. Will DL and battle in a little bit.

    -edit- Actually wait, crap, whenever I click to play the save the game goes back to the main menu. Could this possibly be because of the mini mod?

    That is what happens when you try to load a incompatible save, so it likely is because of the mini mod/

    In retrospect, it would have been better just to modify the file that gives the HRE a family tree. Oh well, here are the files. Extract them to the data folder of LTC.

    Ugh, installed the mini mod and still have the same problem. Were there any other changes made that could make the save incompatible with my game?

    I'm sorry this keeps dragging out, guys. If this takes much longer, I have half a mind to just have Cecil autoresolve it and then write a nice death scene for Heinrich. Hopefully it won't get to that point though.

    This sucks I know, but did you try reinstalling everything yet? I mean M2TW as well as Kingdoms, and then isn't there a patch that needs to go on top of that before you install the mod?

    It's M2TW Gold edition, so I assumed it was fully patched. I'll do a reinstall anyway just to cover everything though.

    Wow, I'm an idiot. Thanks, guys, seriously. Seeing as it's nearly 5am right now for me, we'll leave off with this and Heinrich will fight the damn thing tomorrow.

    Freaking. Finally. Save sent back to Cecil, TCV's up next (don't know if we have to go through Cecil or not first, if not just DL 37-7 from the directory).

    I'll try to get a battle report of this up in the next couple of days. Thanks again for your patience, guys.

    I'll wait until Cecil answers that, and since that's not likely to be tonight, I'll take it tomorrow. I'm glad this game is back on track again.

    Ah, I was going to wait until the battle report to make the reveal, but I forgot about the Diet opportunities. Stand by for an announcement.

    For future reference, I'm fine with someone directly taking the save if his avatar is in command of a defensive battle. Much quicker that way.

    As you may know already, I know very little about M2TW or LtC (or auto-calcing in general for that matter), so it's hard for me to tell, but I think we might just lose. They outnumber us in everything and in total by almost 250; most of their infantry are also being of ever so slightly higher quality better than ours thanks to 1 chevron, and one that looks very good indeed (15 attack IIRC). The in-game balance-o-meter says 1:1, though.

    doh! well let's hope the defenders can fight them off...either that or you can just retake the city and sack it again for more cash

    It's the bigger stack with cav that's more of a worry right?
