There are some people here on the forums that doesnt seem to understand the differance between a STAND-ALONE game and an ADD-ON expansion.
Stand-Alone game: Just what is says; a Full game
Stand-Alone Expansion: expansion packs that does not require the original game in order to use the new content
Add-ON expansion: Requires the original in order to play it.
Off all these 3 options; I would say that Warband is... stand-alone game... and if you are really stretching it, it could be a stand-alone expansion
I mean, would this topic even exist if them developers decided to name the game to... say... path to power? conquer thy enemy?
Bah, why am I even bothering? There are ppl out there that cant read/grasp simple things in life... like the differance between a stand-alone expansion and a full game. I pity them fools
