You can now get your steam keys and redeem them on Steam!

Question,

What is the advantage or purpose of getting a Steam key? I have the game and mega pack and use Steam quite often. I am unclear about what it would do for me? Thanks

All it means is you can play the game through Steam. Nothing more nothing less.

If you do redeem a key on Steam please write a review as the more feedback we get up there the better!

The megapack is just a collection of 6 expansions. Use that serial to register the 6 expansions separately. You can do this manually or the simplest way is to just log in to multiplayer and all your expansions get registered automatically. You can then redeem the Steam keys for each expansion.

Steam deals with the megapack as a bundle of 6 items so there is no way to give a key to unlock all 6, you have to use 6 keys to unlock each separately.

OK, I have generated four Steam keys for the four expansions I've previously purchased (I don't have the Megapack). How do i register the expansions on Steam? Everytime I'm in the game and try to launch the expansion, it keeps taking me to the Steam DLC and says I need to cough up $9.99 for each expansion. Am I missing something?

You need to go to the Game->Activate a Product on Steam option in the Steam client IIRC, then enter the key.

Hi

Is the Mac version of Battle Academy available on Steam yet?

I own PC and Mac (and iPad!) versions of BA. I have generated a Steam key from http://www.slitherine.com/my_page/steam_serials and activated it on Steam OK. However, when I try to install from Steam onto my Mac I get the error

"Steam Game Unavailable. Battle Academy is not available on your current platform."

Is this the case, or do I need a different key for the Mac version? If the latter, how do I get one - the My Steam Keys page linked above only generates a single key for me?

Hello,

Whenever I try to open the new instructions, I get the message: You are not authorised to read this forum. I got 2 copies of gladius, but when I access the products page, I don't see the option to get steam key.
