As many of you might know, it's not a good idea to play KaM The Peasents Rebellion (TPR) multiplayer, because of it's desynchronisation bug. For example, if you play against your friend, both of you can destroy each other and "win". You'll see completely different things on your screen compared to your friends screen.
It's awesome that GOG.com is selling TPR, but I think The Shattered Kingdom (TSK) should be also sold on GOG.com. In my opinion, multiplayer is very important part of most of the games. TSK hasn't been sold anywhere for years. Maybe GOG.com could help desperate KaM players by considering to add TSK to their game collection?
Because of the multiplayer, I think this suggestion should be taken whit a bit higher priority than a normal game wish as there's a single player option already. It's not good to leave things imcomplete. (Not meaning to judge GOG.com team anyway, the ddraw.dll fix they supplied with the game works not only with the GOG.com version, it's compatible with almost every version of the game. This makes the game playable on Windows Vista & Windows 7. Many thanks for that!)
If adding TSK to GOG.com's collection isn't possible, would it be possible to create a similar style (ddraw.dll) fix for TSK and offer it as an extra content of TPR?
What do you think? Would you like to buy TSK from GOG.com if it was offered here?

According to the website:
"Includes the original Knights & Merchants: The Shattered Kingdom and the expansion Knights & Merchants:The Peasants Rebellion. "
Does that imply in any changes in the multiplayer? I don't know, never played it online. But I would LOVE to, if it works.
As I said before, multiplayer won't work with TPR. The TSK multiplayer coding is different - changes have been made while developing TPR. And something went wrong - the desynchronisation bug occurs only in TPR.
You can't play TSK multiplayer, if you own only TPR.
"Includes the original Knights & Merchants: The Shattered Kingdom and the expansion Knights & Merchants:The Peasants Rebellion. "
Well, TPR does include TSK campaign but it's incorrent - few times the original mission has been replaced with a mission from the TPR campaign. Another mistake made by the game authors.
Maybe I should have marked this topic as a question or something because nobody from the GOG.com team will read KaM forum section if there are no question topics. Of course they have a lack of time,too so I guess I won't get any replies. Topic title is almost as wrong as it could be - and I can't edit that. :D
Man, I really miss the prewiew button.
