The collection as a whole is being removed. Not sure which of the games that can be individually purchased will still be available though. But as the majority of the games weren't available for individual purchase this is by far the best opportunity for getting them.

I thought it said Lincoln: Battlemage and was so excited. Well it is a good bundle, but I'm not really interested in any of the games so I'm probably gonna pass.

Also bundle stars works for me again, yea!

Edit: Hmm, Flying Tigers and Noah arks look interesting, Still undecided.

Same here, dood. I got it from Steam while it was on sale in the past Autumn sales.

But even then, I'll be getting this. It also has Super Noah's Ark 3D, and I can always retrade the anthology.

Same here. I asked for a refund. Good thing I didn't play any of the games for more than 2 hours, and that I did get this almost at the end of the sale past week.

I think the limit is 2 hours combined, not 2 hours per game. Not sure if it makes any difference to you.

No difference to me. I have already refunded the game without trouble.

Now, if BS wasn't giving me problems right now, I could buy the bundle.

The key for "check vs. mate" is actually Battle vs. Chess, with APPID=211050 instead of 211070, even if activated in the US.

Apparently they were sued by the makers of "Battle Chess" and had to change the name, but perhaps only changed it in certain regions. Also some regions have cards and some don't, from the looks of it. Really strange one.

It's "Check vs. Mate" only in North American regions (including Mexico). For the rest of world it's "Battle vs. Chess". And you are right, the B vs C, which is actually sold everywhere except NA regions, has cards, while the NA version does not.

And from Wikipedia:

The game was never released in the United States following a lawsuit by Interplay Entertainment for trademark infringement due to its similarity to their title Battle Chess. The case went to trial by jury in the summer of 2012.[1][2] The District Court of California came into session and given that after two years of litigation, TopWare Interactive discharged their lawyer, resulting in Interplay winning the case by default.[3] The settlement was agreed upon on November 15, 2012. Terms of the settlement were $200,000 plus interest.[4]

Just purchased in the USA. Key activated as Battle vs Chess and has trading cards, if anyone needed confirmation.

EDIT: The library entry for it does link to the store page for Check vs Mate.

This may have created a little bit of problem here. I cannot find "Battle vs. Chess" when creating a new SG giveaway. There are actually a couple of "Check vs. Mate" created already. If the key given away turns out to be "Battle vs. Chess", it will look like the winner did not activate the gift.

EDIT for your EDIT: In NA regions if you go to the store page of appid 211050 it automatically redirects you to the 211070 store page.

Yeah it links to the store page for appid 211070, but doesn't show it as "owned" on that store page because of the differing appid.

I foresee many problems for SG support in the near future.

EDIT: Nevermind, hadn't seen boba's post yet. :P

Wait, you're saying you got a different key in your bundle than everyone else? Are you in the U.S. or elsewhere?

I'm just outside Chicago, IL.

I bought the bundle using a US IP and US Paypal attached to a US credit card.

When I activated the key for Check vs Mate, it shows up in my games library as Battle vs Chess. When I right click on Battle vs Chess in my library and select Store Page, it takes me to the Check vs Mate store page, but says I don't own Check vs Mate. I can download Battle vs Chess and play the game, and it's the same game as Check vs Mate.

TLDR: In the USA, the title of the game is Battle vs Chess, but it's the same game as Check vs Mate.

OK, I was confused because Rachel's note is wrong:

"Warning: The key for check vs mate does not activate for the same title for Non NA region buyers. You will get another title called Battle vs Chess if purchasing outside of NA. These are the SAME games, but 2 different names."

That's wrong and confusing.

In North America, you get Battle vs. Chess, which has been removed from sale on Steam, but does have cards.

Outside of North America, you get Check vs. Mate, which is in the Steam Store, but doesn't have cards.

The games are identical, except for the difference in naming and card drops.

Much clearer.
