Which to upgrade first, Ancestral Sources or FH?

Post by LizzieA »

I'm currently running AS 5.3 and FH6. I've just been given FH7 for my birthday and want to upgrade both AS and FH to the latest versions. Which of the two should I upgrade first or doesn't it matter?

Upgrade to FH7 first. Upgrade to AS 7.2 next -- and certainly before you use AS the first time after you've upgraded FH.

Regardless of your FH version you should be running AS7.

Best wishes

So the order of installation must be irrelevant.
