So, got napolean wars, and put my cd key in the multiplayer screen. Napolean wars worked.

I go to play crpg, it re-asked for my cd key. So, I entered my old warband cd key. It says the toon isn't mine.

So, anything I can do on my end to fix this?

click start -> search for regedit -> HKEY_CURRENT_USER -> Software -> Mount&Blade Warband Keys -> change serial key to your normal one (the one your char is on) -> start warband

You do of course need a valid warband key. The normal mount&blade key is of course a different, as warband is another game. You need the one you had used before when you created your character.

The thing with the NW key is something I have no idea about as I bought NW over steam and also warband.

Oh! I just bought the collection pack and was doubtful of installing Napoleonic&Warband, that it required me to use another cd-key when installing. So you guys are saying it is possible to change your cd-key and continue to play with your crpg character?

My UU key is broken incase you can't tell :D

Warband and napolean require two different cd keys, if you check your regedit you will see the difference. So, your crpg char should be safe as long as your pulling the warband key, which steam should auto do and non steam you will need to re-enter it once after napolean installation.

I never was asked to enter a key for Napoleonic Wars...  :shock:
The logic of war seems to be that if a belligerent can fight he will fight.
