Can you point me to "all those Russian comments ......" on the Steam comment pages on "Eador: Masters..." for March 2013? Maybe they are buried in the older history pages.... The Russian-language comments on the March pages seemed only to be very concerned about the potential presence of Starforce in any distribution, GOG will not allow any DRM, but wouldn't it be comical if the Steam distribution also included the "download" version of Starforce 'authentication'..... besides Steam-DRM, of course.
