I say you should offer either a credit or nothing. if you are offering a credit, you might be able to do it without any proof of purchase, thus all the non-cd-breaking people can be happy. that will also increase exposure to other shrapnel games, and encourage many of us here in the 4x comunity to branch into real mans games. like battletech you WUSSY WARHAMMER PLAYING ENGLISHMEN! PLAY A REAL WARGAME GODDAMMIT!
On the same line of thinking (more of less), if I only get a credit and not hard cash it will probably not provide enough motivation for lazy people like me to upgrade to the gold Version. Given that the gold upgrade or any Shrapnel games for that matter will actually cost me MORE than a brand new off-the-shelf game here in Australia; and that the gold Version only adds a few features; AND the fact that there are other off-the-shelf games that I'd like to get my hands on, I'm pretty sure what decision I'm going to make.
My point is a credit won't provide me with much benefit, since it will hardly be enough to pay for the postage to ship a game to Australia.
