In reference to some of our previous discussion here on the potential for add-ons and multiplayer considerations for "Knights", comes the following quote today from member Beaufort's thread "Oleg speaks":

BoB

"BoB will have more sources open for third party. We expect even some third party industry around it. However it will be not like in MS sims. Its all becasue of fair online gameplay.
So the third party add-ons in most cases will be not playable with the main game content using online modes - Only on separate servers, except the cases if we will sertify such add-on for online gameplay and will close of its source code."

This has been my emphasis for having "official" add-on modules envisioned for "Knights" expansion (if this becomes a future possibilty)......the controlled multiplayer compatability this approach promotes. \:\)
