Unfortunately, as discussed above, War of Magic was a disappointment to Stardock and its fans in a number of areas and exposed some deep-seated problems with the games unit.

While War of Magic has subsequently been greatly improved, Stardock is not convinced that this title, with a 55 metacritic average, can redeem itself. Therefore, rather than tie new Designer/Project Manager Derek Paxton to the 7 previously planned expansions of War of Magic, it was decided to have Derek and his team focus on the creation of Elemental: Fallen Enchantress, a stand alone expansion which will not require users to purchase War of Magic.

(Users who purchased War of Magic this past year will receive Fallen Enchantress for free; Stardock will also provide steep discounts to anyone who purchases War of Magic prior to the release of Fallen Enchantress. We are also committed to enhancing War of Magic on its own path for those users who prefer its game mechanics.)
