Your Ironclad Online account is different than your Stardock account (they're not tied together). Try creating a separate ICO account to see if that helps.

Well its not that. I tryed creating an account with the forum info through the game and it says its in use then i tryed a different Account Name and it said my CD-key is in use. So it must somewhere else along the lines.

Please contact [email protected]. They'll be able to look up your information on ICO.

I had the same issue, but I know what happened to me. The firewall is blocking the communication. I wanted to try to connect. I knew, that firewall wants to confirm the connection in this case. But there is no way to confirm the dialogue, because the game is waiting to establish the connection and Alt-Tab, Ctrl-Esc etc. do not work. There should be a timeout in the game.

In cases like these, run the game in "windowed-mode" until you've unblocked it. :D

I knew what happened and I looked at the firewall protocol. I found the connecting application there. But I solved the problem only in my computer. Not all players are programmers. I wrote this, because this is a bug and I think, that is shall be corrected in the game.
