    Hi, I recently ordered ToB and am waiting for it to arrive. If I start a regular SoA game now, will I be able to install ToB later and continue with the same characters? (and never suffer the xp cap)

    Thanks

    Well, you can play now, install later, and as soon as you have installed, the EXP cap will be at 8 million, so if I understood your question right, yes.

    Just make sure you stop playing once you get close to 2950000 exp and you´ll be okay :)

    There's no need to stop playing before you hit the cap. Even after that, the XP is still counted fine, it's just not displayed on the character record sheet. So once he installs ToB, he'll have as much XP as he actually accumulated, not only up to the cap.

    One more thing, be sure to install the ToB patch as soon as you install the game. :rolling:
