    Could someone explain what this securerom thing is?

    I dont have it and probably wont buy it till I hear from the community that 90% of the serious bugs in vanilla MTW2 and Kingdoms are gone.

    I bought it. THE BEST TW expansion in my opinion. Maybe even the best TW Game.

    I bought it on the day of release, haven't played another video game since, and haven't regretted a single moment of my time with Kingdoms.

    I have it.

    Americas campaign is unbelievably fun, Britannia is great, Teutonic feels like more of the same stuff as vanilla, and I haven't played crusades enough to really comment, but it also feels like more of the same for anyone who's played turks or egypt in vanilla.

    Overall, I'd say it was worth $30. Americas campaign is probably the most fun I've had in any TW game, and would be worth the $30 alone in my opinion. The others are just a bonus.

    After reading about the Securom issue, no.

    I was going to wait a few months to buy it, but with everyone here talking about it I was getting anxious not knowing what everyone was talking about.

    A week ago I broke down and bought it so I could join the club.

    I'm not worried about securerom. As for the "uninstallable" thing, i don't uninstall things - I reinstall windows (from a HDD image). I don't see what the big deal is, Daemon tools was running during Kingdoms install and every launch, and I even didn't realize it (because I rarely use it) until I read someone saying Securerom will incinerate your hard drive or something if you use dtools. Hmmm, look at that i said, dtools has been in my tray the whole time, no problems.

    I bought it, didn't know about securom till after I'd installed. Having a great time playing through the Britannia campaign though. Only peeked at the other campaigns, not started any others.

    Nope. Nor will I until they stop the ridiculous SECUROM attempt to secretly and without my permisison install software on my machine that I can never remove.

    I may still play it though.

    Totally agree with these. The games have been awesome and I like the variety of play. I think someone mentioned that the Teutonic campaign is similar to Vanilla M2TW and I agree, but still the best TW game around....

    Check here so this thread doesn´t go OT.

    I am currently playing the Brittania and the Americas campaigns... I just couldn´t resist just starting one...

    Wondering what other people do, playing one campaign at the time (to the end) or starting up multiple campaigns (like me, because too impatient...)?

    I won't purchase it until something gets done about the Securom issue. I'm a long-time fan of the TW games (bought STW soon after release) and long-time lurker here and I'm choosing to post about this issue, which means I care about it a great deal.
    Once something gets sorted about Securom I'll buy the expansion. Until then it'll be the original campaign and X3 for me.

    P.S. I really hope they *do* do something about the Securom issue! I'd be sad to give up on a game series I've enjoyed for so long, though it's not like I have much time for games anymore.

    I know this isn't the appropriate place, but I haven't had SecuRom mess up my gaming experience at all - nor mess with my pc in any other (notable) way.

    Also, I don't see Sega doing anything about SecuRom in the near future really, as it's designed to combat piracy and all that.
