    I believe it will be for 1.5 as i think CA has said you will not need BI to play it.

    I asked the same question at the Org some time ago. I am not sure which CA member replied, but he stated that the expansion would require R:TW 1.5, and not BI.

    That seals it. I use only patch 1.2
    The other patched add to many new bugs...

    Not buying..

    I think the same argument was made against using patch 1.2. However, by my knowledge the only serious bug 1.5 adds is the memory leak, and it is a lot less than in 1.3. All the rest is just minor things that quite often were present in 1.2 already.

    The other patches after 1.2 are well worth downloading for the fact they fix the load/save bug, and really help improve the ai.

    Ps, your sig is too large, the max size allowed is 468x100.

    It means that as you play longer the RAM memory becomes filled with useless information that the game somehow fails to remove. This is related to the campaign-map and causes slow-downs of your computer as there is less RAM space available to store temporary entries. I am told it was quite bad in the 1.3 version (though I play any campaigns in that one), but 1.5 removed the worst slow-downs. If you have a lot of RAM memory, like many computers do nowadays, it is hardly noticable.

    It seems the question is answered. thread closed.

    The 1.2 has most serious bug of all.
    The AI breaking sieges and invasions with save/load.

    The sole reason why I never tried any of beta mods that sticked with 1.2
