I just reinstalled Elemental to check the new beta patch but neither 1.09 nor the new beta version starts. The launch window opens but after I click "Play Game" I only see a short black flash. Cannot even find a debug-file in the game folder, can't try out settings, because the game does not start at all.

The problem is that Ubisoft has the rights for the German market and for that reason Steam blocked it for Austria. Switzerland and Germany. Are there any other distributors that sell King Arthur?

Elven Legacy is a (indeed very hard) sequel to Fantasy Wars. Fantasy Wars itself is a brilliant remake of the classic "Fantasy General" by SSI.

I recommend starting with Fantasy Wars though because its much easier. If the game is worth your time depends on what you would spend it otherwise
