any news on what the editor can do?

Will there be an area of 1cpublishing dedicated for hosting fan made campaigns or at least providing links to them ? Sort of like hevenly games for aow2/aow2sm.

Of course oneconcern is most of them will be in Russian given the popularity in the region (only a concern because I cannot read Russian )

We will think about it. Definitely we will have a separate thread on the forum dedicated to fan made campaigns.

I am thinking (not a promise!) that me might want to run a proper affiliate program with the modders - maybe even pack several best fan addons into a special pack and help them distribute it. For example there is a huge number of people making addons for MS flight-sim.

Let's see first how many people are interested in playing with the editor and how elaborate those mods/expansions would be.

I've got an idea. How about a competition where, perhaps from November to December, modders have two months to create a small mod of a set number of islands (such as 5 islands) and the top 3-4 winners get packaged in a special addon pack and they win a special prize (King's Bounty: The Legend - Collector's Edition with an AP t-shirt, perhaps?) and all runners up get a special addon for the game?

Just an idea!

Thanks we will think about various ideas. For now we are working hard to make sure that game is out on the 17th and is as polished as possible.

Will we see a collector edition to Crossworlds?

*edit*

Oh nevermind, there's a GOTY edition.

Really looking forward to user made content. Personally, I'm lacking a few attributes when it comes to seeing a full campaign through to the end. Mostly attention span and the ability to come up with good names for characters.

With enough exposure and development, an IGN vault might be a good idea as well. nwvault.ign.com has always been a particularly active one.

Get ready to create your own perfect king's bounty, the editor is pretty userfriendly, so I'm sure everyone will be able to create new content or just modify the existing.

Giving the editor away was like giving the hen that laid the golden eggs, surely people would have bought further KB titles, now since they have been given the power to create their own Mods of the game they are less likely to buy future KB releases. (if any)
