Will the game allow multiple copies for LAN play

from Elemental Forums

Hello!  My husband and I are very excited about this game and we were wondering how many copies we had to pre-order if we both wanted to play on separate computers on the same network.  Many games allow themselves to be installed on multiple computers for LAN use.  Will Elemental be like this, or will we be required to purchase it twice?

 

Thank you!

I believe your allowed multiple in the same household up to something like 3-4 computers at least i was told that for both sins of a solar empire as well as dragon age origins from impulse.

 

I do not know in particular to elemental but ask the support site.

Generally speaking, Stardock is "OK" with multiple installations for a LAN, as long as you uninstall them afterwards if it's on computers that aren't yours, like a LAN party at a net cafe or something. You are generally permitted a second installation on a computer you do own, in the EULA. It is unlikely, I think, for Elemental to be different. Certainly if it's only between you and your husband in the same house you'll be able to install it on both and play LAN - however, online will require unique serial numbers, so you would need two copies for that.
