Importing from a 16 copy bought from the Mac App Store

I hadn't really been planning on buying 17, but it looks amazing!

A couple questions related to how I make the jump, given that I got the game on the Mac App store, not Steam like most folks:

1) If I want to be able to import my game from 16 to 17, will I also need to buy 17 from the app store?

2) If so, can I still participate in the preorder?

I would think that the league would be transferable regardless of where you buy it. That being said, buying direct from OOTP Developments means they get a bit more money in their pockets. Just sayin'

Leagues are fully transferrable, so it won't matter if you play on Steam, buy from us, the mac store, or anywhere else.

Hi Matt, I have a quick question on a related issue and thought it best to ask here rather than bother with a new thread.

Is there any benefit to waiting until OOTP17 comes out rather than starting a league on '16 and then transferring. I'm planning on starting an historical league from the 19th century and figure I could start that now on '16, and by the time '17 comes out, I'll be closer to the point at which historical minors begin. Any drawbacks to doing things this way? Never imported from a previous version before.

Thanks.

Probably better to ask a question like this in the thread talking about historical minors.

I'm not sure - Markus handled the historical minors, so I'll get him to answer this question

Historical minors are only supported for games started in OOTP 17, sorry.
