make love... war spoils on smurf account

Hello

I have over 2k hours on my main account (to which the game is registered to, as a purchase, along all the DLC in the game). For reasons not related to COH2, I have moved on to a smurf account in the last 6 months or so (mainly because of Dota and CS rankings). Since I was too lazy to keep logging in and logging out, I just used Family Share to play COH2 from my smurf account.

Now... I wanted to get the loot from the make war not love event, and I went to the website. It appears that the website does not recognize my smurf as a coh2 account because I get the red text giving me the error. But when I put my original account, I got the loot on that original account - but it registers as WAR SPOILS not DLC, which are not share-able through Family Share, only Game DLC is.

Does anyone know how to circumvent this so I can access these war spoils from the make love... event through family share?

Thank!

You can only share factions, no commanders-skins...


but also i have OKW on my (now) main, and have eastern front on another, and cant share those, so i cant play ostheer, soviets. Which is bad.

sorry mate but thats not true

You CAN share DLC purchases - ANY DLC - can be commander, faction, skin, faceplate.

War Spoils Drops are NOT shareable. Maybe you just didnt buy the commanders, just got them as drops...

then how? I want to play with soviets-ostheer.

anyway, when i first shared, it was 18 month ago.. then you only could share faction and the singleplayer..., but not the ToWs,commanders,skins..

Actually, you share ALL of DLCs as well.

just like the man above said - ALL PURCHASED DLC are shareable.

War spoils are not DLC, and they "drop" to one account only. In other words, i can get war spoils drops on my original, and any smurf accounts.

content for which you paid is shareable with family share regardless of its type - ToW, faction, commanders, skins, plates

No, games is not shared if you have it already, irrelevant of EF or WF.
It needs to be clean account without CoH2.

Hmm, when I created a duplicate account for some testing I had all the Commanders.

However I bought or unlocked everything before warspoils came in, and I had CAS last year. I think how they released CAS last year was different to this year.
