Silverlode Interactive has partnered with 1UP to give away loaded and fully registered copies of SAGA the world’s first collectible MMO RTS

Provo, UT, November 21, 2008—Christmas has come early for RTS fans. Starting Friday, November 21st and lasting ‘til Christmas, RTS fans will be able to get their hands on a fully registered copy of a fully persistent MMO RTS game at FileFront (www.filefront.com), part of the 1UP Network. To sweeten the deal, the SAGA team will fill your stocking with over $50 worth of collectible SAGA units, an incredible giveaway to FileFront site visitors.

SAGA is implementing their account-bound troop feature which allows Silverlode Interactive to give away a large number of troops to starting players without adversely affecting the game economy.

“We’re going to try giving new players a lot more than we ever have before to start out with, a full army with some of our more powerful units,” says SAGA CEO Jason Faller. “We want players to have the best experience possible, and it doesn’t get much better than this.”

SAGA uses an innovative collectible revenue model which makes it possible to offer free accounts in a spectacular MMO RTS experience without charging monthly fees.

Accounts created with the FileFront promotion code will grant players full units of elite troops from each of six SAGA factions. Players will receive a diverse army of free collectible troops: fire-breathing Hellhound Riders for use with the Magic faction, long-range Dwarven Bombardiers for the Machines faction, deadly accurate Orc Snipers for the War faction, and full units for the Light, Nature and Undead factions – everything a commander could want to start an online empire!
