…why do we have to pay twice for additional content for two different accounts?
Other games such as “Warhammer Quest” don’t charge twice.
As I said I think this is a great game (my favourite app) but I have spent more than on a console game due to doubling up everything!
What do others think?
Love this game but.........

Since you asked what others think, I think you are a whining child (did I hear a foot stomp and “it’s not fair” in the background?).
I can tell your maturity, but not your education so I’ll try to keep the lesson simple.
The game is free. You don’t need more than one account to play. Extra content is optional and extra accounts are for your convenience.
If you don’t want to spend the money, (wait for it…) don’t spend the money.
Selling additional content (and RAD bucks) is how the devs make a living off the game. Do you have any clue what it takes to produce a POS game let alone a “great” one? Read the credits. Those people put a lot of effort into a free game with the hope that enough people will pay them for the extras. It’s called a job. You should try one sometime.
Some people (parents & kids, siblings) use separate accounts on a shared device. An account can be moved from one device to another. I could give (or sell) my account (at level 40 with coins and toons and weapons (oh my)) to someone else for use on another device. (Anybody up for farming?)
If two or more accounts were allowed to share purchases (expansions and/or RAD bucks) what controls do or could exist that would prevent someone from buying all the expansions and a bunch of RAD bucks, share everything across a bunch of free accounts then give away or sell the excess accounts to other people? I do not know if “Warhammer Quest” or your other unnamed games have solved those problems or not. Do you? Or may everybody should just pinkie swear.

I think I can have multiple accounts on one device. I think I can play a single account on multiple devices. If I am allowed to sync purchased content among multiple accounts, then I can create dozens of accounts, purchase all the content on one account once, sync it to the other accounts, and give away or sell the loaded accounts to other people. I don’t know how/if Warhammer Quest handles that scenario.

Sorry guys I don’t mean two different iTunes accounts, I mean two Rad Soldiers accounts i.e. using two email address so you can have different teams on iPod (another family member) & iPad (mine).
I agree Warhammer isn’t free but you only purchase it once (same for additional content) so it can be played on two different devices.
Jerry, I don’t think you can have more than one iTunes account on one device but maybe I’m wrong?
I don’t have any other apps where you pay twice, although there are some that you have to pay separately for the iPad app (but I’n no expert!)

Throughout my diatribe, the only accounts I was referring to were Rad Soldiers accounts. I have 2 Rad Soldiers accounts on my iPad. I think others do this to have parents/children/siblings with separate rad soldiers account on a single shared device. I think you can play an existing rad soldiers account on any device, not just the original device.

So with your two Rad accounts do you have to purchase additional content on both, or haven’t you purchased any additional content?
Thanks for the replies.

I have purchased content and RAD$ on my primary but have not purchased anything on my secondary. I always assumed it did not get shared but I actually haven’t checked the secondary to see if the content got shared or not. I post when I get around to it.
(Badman, if you are monitoring, seeing how the conversation is going, I am feeling really remorseful now)
