I think Tim touched on this in the recent AMA. It's something we want to support. Just a matter of when we can dedicate the time and resources (we have very little to spare of each!)
As you mentioned, there's a group playing fun custom 2v2 maps in our Discord. I'm sure they'd love to have you join them.
Please try it out. It’s free to play the first few missions and we would appreciate you taking a look at the hard work the team has put into the campaign.
If you decide that you then want to support our work, it would mean a lot to us.
It's in the in-game store!
Originally posted by ZakaryX: This isn't the first time I've seen someone have this issue with confusion over what they're purchasing. Maybe the entire campaign should just be a flat purchase to eliminate the issue entirely. Just a thought.
Greetings, Commanders. Looking for what to buy if you just want to play the campaign?
Open the Stormgate client and visit the store (it's the little chest icon in the upper nav bar.)
There you will find Campaign 1: Ashes of Earth \[FULL CAMPAIGN]
It looks like this:

The full Ashes of Earth campaign is available for $25 USD (or the equivalent in your local currency after Steam's exchange rates are applied.)
We are working to add the Ashes of Earth campaign pack to the Steam storefront so that it's more visible and can also be gifted to friends.
After listening to player feedback, we are also planning...
Read moreHi Bleord. If you still can, I recommend that you refund the Deluxe Edition bundle and instead purchase the Ashes of Earth campaign directly from the in-game store; it's $25 USD.
We are also working on getting that $25 campaign pack onto the Steam storefront. That requires a few steps to complete, including Valve approval, so we don't have an ETA, but we're working on it.
Most of all, we are incredibly grateful for any and all purchases that players have made, and we're sorry about any confusion or frustration with how these options are presented.
Its baffling to me that they dont have a simpler bundle for just buying the whole vanguard campaign. I dont know what the point of the basic or deluxe bundles is supposed to be right now....
We are working on getting a campaign bundle up in the Steam store. This requires some work and approvals, so no ETA, but we're on it.
Wait wait wait wait... I just got to the Steam page: You need 60€ to access to just 10 missions? If you take the cheaper packs (25 and 40€) it's only 3 missions? What the hell is going on?
The full Ashes of Earth campaign is available for purchase in the store for 24.99 USD. (Regional prices vary)
Do you have the steam overlay disabled? You need to have it enabled for microtransactions.
Incredible community tech support here. It truly does take a village!
Today is a huge day for Stormgate as we move out of Early Access on Steam with the official Launch of the Ashes of Earth Campaign! It’s been a long journey so far, and this is only the beginning of what we hope Stormgate can become.
Jump in today:
Full Ashes of Earth Campaign, including 12 missions
Full 1v1 Mode
Sigma Labs Access including the Terrain Editor Alpha and 3 Player Co-op
AI Skirmish Mode including 2 brand new Challenger Skirmishes: Major Galt and Vokurka
The map terrain editor alpha will be out today. Please show us what you build! More features and tools for the editor will be rolling out in our future updates.
This must have taken a lot of effort to format. Thank you!
