Update with episode 2 is out but the IAP says the item is not available. Edit: I guess I will wait and see if it will be available later tonight. Edit2: Yeah, I also got the IAP to work. Apparently the IAP was a few minutes behind the update.
fallen- FYI, no continuing crash. Picked up right where it left off, so I guess I just got a bit of a free preview!
@ojtitus - thanks for the confirmation that it is working! All of the app stores seem to struggle within the first few minutes of an IAP release! It took Google Play almost 2 hours - and was that freaking us out!
We are excited to released our first major expansion to our turn-based tactics RPG, Heroes of Steel. In the second episode, The Gathering Shadow, you heroic group travels into the eastern Underdeep to face new challenges and to hunt down old enemies. The expansion doubles the size of the already sprawling world of Steel. Episode 2 sends your group into lava caverns and into the highlands of the east where you face Ice and Stone Trolls, crazed Cultists worshiping a spider god and legions of Orcin led by devious shamans. v2.0.5 - 3/8/2014 - Episode 2: The Gathering Shadow continues the epic story for $1 IAP - Resolved issue with Traveler's Shrine quest - Corrected accuracy curse issue with Meteroic Shockwave - Increased drop rate of Rejuvenation Potions in E2 - Fixed model for Kea Braeys - Fixed Keep Rooftop limbo between E1 & E2 - Fixed north exit point from Vrenhaulm - Fixed typos in dialog and leveling screens The next update (2.1.7) has already been loaded into the Apple queue and is headed to review hopefully soon! Lots of fixes, balances, new monsters and subquests are coming ASAP!
Picked up the IAP expansion; keep material coming! Heroes of Steel can be had on PC very cheap over the next few days as a bonus in Groupees Build-A-Bundle 8: http://groupees.com/bab8#
i see the Heroes Of Steel "Elite" version was just released for $3.99. i understand it includes esp 1 &2 and your prepaying for esp. 3 & 4. Is there anything else included, like the extra heroes ( as IAP ) from the basic version?
@Marcus70 - Elite provides a way for our customers to purchase the entire story in one go (all 4 Episodes) for $4. If you purchase them separately, they are each $1, so you get the same price. Nothing else is included for the price, ti is a 1-to-1 between the two apps. Therefore, if you've already invested in Heroes of Steel RPG, that's the app for you. Elite is for new players who want to hop in with a single purchase. Hope that helps explain! Within Elite, you can still buy the character IAPs for $2.
This bundle is awesome, please join in and get Heroes of Steel RPG for free! Also, it has helped catapult our already climbing Greenlight project on Steam up the charts. We have reached the rank of #25 of 1,601 games on Greenlight! We are likely to get into the next batch of games, so vote Yes today! http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=210285625
@Amenbrother - great news - we've started working on Game Center (Apple), Game Circle (Amazon), Play Games (Google), and Steamworks (Steam) ... as you can see, its a lot platforms to support, but we are now actively in process of planning and implementing support for a number of these service types (save backups, achievements, ladders).
Wow that is awesome, do you know if it will work backwards at all? Like stuff we do in the game now will the achievement unlock when it gets implemented?
@amenbrother - I do not think that it will be retroactive, sorry! Definitely excited to add these integrations!

I play the game in my new ipad air but it was bit laggy, even my old iphone 4 can run it more smoothly. Any chance of fix ?
I´m playing it in an iPad Air too and it isn´t laggy at all.... at least until the last update... didn´t try it yet...
