Hooray
Starting on Tuesday, July 22nd you will start to see Western Front Armies Commanders in the Free Commander Rotation. We will continue to also feature other commanders, ensuring that players who don’t yet own the Western Front Armies still get to try premium content.
In addition to placing the Western Front Armies Commanders in the Free Rotation, we will be adding them to the Steam store for purchase on July 23rd

Hi folks,
We've just put up a new blog post regarding War Spoils, and community feedback we've received so far.
You can read it here: http://bit.ly/LetsTalkWarSpoils
Thanks!
Cynthia, did I read this correctly?
As a thank-you to all of our existing users, we granted them with every piece of legacy progression content from the previous system.
Does that mean you generously let me keep the DLC stuff I already paid for? If there was any other 'system' prior to that I certainly didn't get any content from it.
Yes, I'm a disgruntled Collector's Edition customer who was screwed over.

Sounds more like you get all the old bulletins that were unlockable for free. Not something you paid for.

Any speculations what this new value to duplicates would mean? Some trade system? Crafting (like in other MMORPG's

It will make you money, however keeping duplicates will certainly continue to enrage your customers. I fear buying a commander only to unlock his duplicate the very next game i play.
Relic wont tell us what the duplicates are for. Even after reading their blog on why they did what they did still doesnt make a whole lot of sense.
1.) There should have been no duplicates from the beginning.
2.) We should have been allowed to buy premiums from the beginning. (no duplicate)
3.) We also need to be allowed to unlock them through war spoils.
with no duplicates that system would have worked perfectly and would have been exactly what the community would have liked.
It would not have needed to be improved on except for maybe a few minor tweaks here and there.
It wouldnt have felt like unlocking commanders was like pushing water up a hill of duplicate faceplates.
It would have felt like unlocking the unwanted faceplate or bulletin was getting it out of the way of your chances at a new commander. thus, even unwanted unlocks would have been rewarding in the sense that they still highten your chances at something new each time you unlock anything.
but now you're being vague and telling us to wait and see what is next.
why are you even considering to keep the duplicate plague that is suffocating your game?
better yet, your blog practically told us that you released War Spoils before it was ready. Why did you do that?

This is another step in the right direction. A small one, but very important nonetheless.
I'm very happy Relic is listening to customer feed-back although they could speed up the time it takes to make small but obvious improvements like this.
I'm still very eager to do something with my 4 duplicate bulletins and 3 duplicate faceplates.
Also congrats to Cynthia for a very well written blog post.

In particular I note:
To date, the War Spoils system has dropped over 527,832 content items. We would like to advise players to not delete duplicate content you receive, as value will be added to these items as the system evolves.
From observations and interactions with the community, we’ve identified the following issues as high priority to address
•A purpose and value for duplicate items
•A need for correlation between skill/game outcome: If you have an awesome game, the system should account for that
•The inclusion of Western Front Armies Commanders in the store, available for purchase
So duplicates are intentional, but they have not yet worked out what to do with them
Not sure why they gave people the ability to delete if they advise not to use it, but otherwise very welcome

i say that because ive been hardcore farming (250+ hours since release) and only got 2 out of 6 commanders so far and its really frustrating. especially if i had spent all that time actually playing rather than having the AI slug it out for me, while i check back every 2 hours or so...
that of course was only possible because i had to be at home anyways (studying)... if i actually had to go to university each day or if i had a full time job i probably wouldnt have recieved any commander at all.... which seems to be the case for many people around here
so yeah i, too, welcome the option to buy those commanders

i kinda feel you but at least it's better for the whole community.
maybe they can make a exclusive faceplatse or skins for us who spent a lot of dollars on dlcs, not knowing we might receive them for free in the future.
