Hello im trying to buy the latest FoG DLCs it says on the Matrix site that they are reduced at 50 percent for all DLCs including the new ones. But i cant see any price reductions the prices are the same at £8.99. Is it only in America are they reduced or in Britain as well? So what is the price reduction can someone explain thank you.

Not sure how much they are originally in your country but I am from Australia and prior to the re-release, the expansions cost around $29 Australian dollars and now they cost around $15 Australian dollars.

Thanks i would have imagined it would show what the original price was and what it is reduced to now, but it doesnt show that just the one main price in Britain at £8.99. I dont want to buy them yet until someone can officially say what it is over here.

As this is a permanent price reduction it won't show the original price.
The prices seem to be correctly set to all currencies including British Pound.

"This new release is coming with a50% permanent price reduction on all Field of Glory DLCs! From now on, all DLCs are priced at $ 9.99."

$9.99 ..........which translates to £8.99..................another mystifying and disappointing currency conversion / exchange rate for UK members. As I write the exchange rate should give a figure of around £7.70p. I've heard the arguments before when this has been raised and I know that this rate is not set by Slitherine, however it is not really defensible.

Thank you thats what i thought because the original game is being sold at £16.99 so the DLCs are still quite costly in comparison with the game. I assume the DLCs can only be played with the new version then?

Well, it used to be £20 and £15 for expansions, something which was always going to hold the series back to most gamers but new price is a lot more reasonable.

Yes, Wolves From the Sea and Oath of Fealty can only be played with the new version.

Hi found one bug with the new version. Each time you start up the game to play someone and you see your units for the first time you cant see what the range arc is for the range units unless you click on the tool icon first to look at the options list then close the tool panel then you can see your range arcs for your units that seems rather irritating at the moment. Anyone else notices this?
