Apparently Age of Empires Online, including premium content, will 
be practically free after the summer update (whatever that is). 
They will allow either using money to pay for premium content or 
using points earned by playing to pay for premium content. 

If I'm not mistaken, the multiplayer part of the game is already 
free. I guess premium content is not used in player versus player 
mode. Personally, I don't really understand what the fluff is all
about. I would have preferred an easier to understand real-time
strategy format. 

Good luck and have fun.
