I recently purchased DW and the Shaturi expansion. I have a really good game going and don't want to loose it if I upgrade to Legends.

Am I correct in presuming my old saves will not work with Legends?

Yes, sorry the savegame format changes with each expansion, so ROTS savegames are not compatible with Legends.

So you'll have to finish your current game before installing Legends.

It's worth it, Legends really brings a ton of awesomeness to the table. Also, glad to see you decided to make the purchase, Blastpop. Keep us posted on your games and let us know if have any questions while diving into Legends and all of the new features!

PS: If you are really into your current game, maybe you could link the two plot lines from your old game to the new one (like starting the new game with an old crumbling version of your previous empire/worst enemy ripe for the picking).

Now there is a transitional approach that I failed to think of. Just started fresh with simple-minded bugs.

I'm also glad to see you made the leap Blastpop. As 'the1sean' said, post any questions or problems you
may have. We're here to help!
