    Not sure where to post this but here seems as good as any !

    Am planning to install the game on a second machine both to allow me to use my current account on it but also to allow my wife to set up an account so that she can play the game too.

    My questions are ;

    Can I use my current account to buy another copy of the game and download it onto the second machine or do I need to create a new account with a different email address etc to do so ?

    Presumably once installed I can use the game on the second machine to either log into my present account/character or a new account/character dependibg on whih log in details I use ?

    Thanks in advance !

    Separate email for 2nd account.

    You can log in either account on either computer, or both in separate clients on the same computer.

    Hope that helps.

    Also to save bandwidth you can copy the downloads folder from within the SotA directory to your other computer and then install.

    1) You can download it to the second machine without buying a copy of the game.
    2) You may login with any character for which you have the account and password.
    3) When purchasing access to the game for your wife you would purchase it on a new account with a new email address (and login to either account using the appropriate credentials).

    Many thanks for the answers :)

    Bandwidth is no problem so how do I download the game using my existing account ? Presumably I login on the webpage - then ?

    Account -> Game Client / Steam tab

    You should see the OS icons under Play SotA through Direct Download

    Click on the link to download.
