If I buy membership now, do I get to unlock the cool features? My account is not grandfathered. Also, when I tried to put more than 18 player in a game, a pop-up appears asking me to buy membership to have 20 players in a game. Does that mean I have to unlock 24 players even if I buy membership? Does that mean I'm only buying to remove ads? I think it's worth ridding the ads itself but I don't want to get membership just for it.

Don't forget about the ladders

thanks. I forgot since i never experienced it

Check out http://warlight.net/Membership - this details exactly what you get.

You can disable ads, get access to all ladders, can create games up to 20 players, get access to the luck modifier and rounding mode settings, and extra vacations.

so it does not matter if my account is not grandfathered. Alright. On an unrelated note, are the new colors going to be available for players or its only an option for games with more than 24 players.

Wishful thinking here but can I buy membership via itunes? It's much more convinient since I do not have a paypal or a ccredit card. I have cash though,

No you have to use PayPal I think.

Arun, now that the apps are out there it should be possible to buy membership through them.. although idk for sure.

Should be. It isn't at the moment though.
