Do the Expansions work with the German version?

Post by Blubel »

Hi all,

well basically with the sale and Legends comming out I would like to get the Expansions.
However I have the German retail version of the game so I would like to know if they will work together well. Has anyone tried this out?

Thanks,
Blubel

I believe you can choose the language-version when purchasing off the website. [8D]

They do work with the German release, but as the additional text is not translated, it means that you will have some text in English and some in German.

You will have the starting diplomacy texts in German with the Ü Ä Ö Bug were they are replaced with ? in a <>, but most things will turn to English.

Could you elaborate a bit on this bug? Is this in the standard German release or only if one of the expansions has been added?

It's when the German Version of DW gets a RotS Expansion in English. That is no standard.

If it would be possible I would like to get the English Version of Vanilla DW, but I will not pay for it twice to reinstall it.
