For those of you who had once played Delta Tao's Clan Lord, all old
accounts have been reactivated and there is no longer a monthly fee.
Stop by and say hello to some old friends.

Clan Lord Free FAQ

Monthly fees for Clan Lord are now optional.

Clan Lord is free?
Yes. Accounts that are expired will still be able to log on and play.

How long does this promotion last?
It's not a promotion. It's a policy.

Are new accounts free?
No, they're still officially $14.95. This is mostly to keep people
from creating 100 accounts for no good reason. But yes, once created
they'll be able to play with no monthly fees forever.

Can I still pay if I want?
Yes, we'd prefer that. Thanks!

The rest of the FAQ may be read on the Free FAQ page (
http://www.deltatao.com/clanlord/freefaq.html ).  We hope to see you
in Puddleby soon.

Same msg, press-release style :)

To celebrate more than ten years of multiplayer adventure and intrigue,
Delta Tao Software has eliminated monthly fees from their Massively
Multiplayer Roleplaying Game, Clan Lord. 

Clan Lord is a Fantasy MMORPG for Mac and PC with a focus on a friendly
community and simple, approachable gameplay. Players can now join others
from across the world to fight monsters, solve puzzles, and make friends
in a constantly expanding world for a one time charge of $14.95. Clan
Lord can be purchased from <http://www.clanlord.com>. A free demo is
available as well. Free updates are released every three weeks and
contain new content and bug fixes.

Clan Lord is a cool idea, but it's been on it's deathbed for years now.
Only the most hardcore players have kept it alive and it's never managed
to grow it's player base. Will this change to no more ongoing subs
improve the situation? Mmmmm... I'm doubtful. Maybe someone who's played
within the past year can chime in with the current state of the game?

the recent change to free play, I'm seeing about twice the players on as
usual.

I'm writing this while I'm dead in a huge assault on the Orga Camp.  I
wouldn't call it an MMO or a commercial game.

It's a graphic MUD with a very loyal userbase/community and a devoted
developer group.  Many of the core people have been involved for 10
years.

It's small enough that you can impact the game story and development
directions.

I play a ton of WoW too and there is no comparison.  

I've been there since beta, so take a grain of salt.
