License Question

I installed my copy of BA twice, on two laptops concurrently (I wrote to Slitherine asking if this was OK per the license agreement, and Andrea wrote back and said it was). I'd like now to buy a second license so that my stepson can use one of those laptops for multiplayer with me over the summer. Question: can I "re-license" that copy with a new serial number somehow, or do I need to uninstall that copy and reinstall a new copy with the new license? Hope this is clear... I asked Andrea and she said she was sure there was a way but suggested I post here.

Thanks!

Yes you can - just reinstall the game with the new serial over the top. Each of you needs an account on the forum to play multiplayer so your stepson would need to set up an acount here or you can just do that from inside the game.

Thanks. My question though was whether I could just erase the current serial number somehow and plug in the new one so as to avoid having to re-install the entire game. But I guess a re-install really isn't that big a deal anyway.

Not really - much easier to just reinstall :)
