Is there going to be other "add on's" after Crossworlds....??? Am I going to have to restart AGAIN if there's is?

Crossworlds came out about a year after Armored Princess. Do you really think you'll be playing the same game a year from now?

A good question

However, this save transfer plight seems to affect a lot of people. It might be prudent to consider a possibility of a save transfer, but still, I can't see how that could be done. It is not an MMORPG where you simply add new skills to the existing ones and add new areas with new units and new content to avoid this kind of problem.

I can see where you guys are coming from, but remember they said it was an expansion to the original KBAP campaign - and then they clarified that this meant new units, a couple new quests, and some new spells.

If you could somehow skip to just the new quests, I doubt you'd have more than a few hours of gameplay there - especially at your high level given the save game transfer. So you'd transfer, play a few hours, tinker with some new stuff (assuming they plopped it all in front of you with a few vendors) and then get bored (and some people would complain it didn't add enough, probably).

IMO the gameplay from this expansion comes from the fact that all these new elements are interwoven in the new campaign, giving it a fresh experience (but not "new") and increasing the replay value.

As for me, I started with the champion mode (and was surprised how fast I beat it on normal) and then blew through the boss arena. Those were fun, but my real fun didn't start until I restarted KBAP with the new Orcs mod on it and I have to say it's great fun. I remember the original well enough to be delighted by all the little tweaks every time I run into them.
