1. Read the rules
Short and fair, much as veterans of Defiance Network AOS remember them: macro your skills at home, never gather unattended, no cheats, and be decent to each other.
2. Run the installer
One download for Windows sets up everything: the Moongate Legacy client, the Razor assistant and, if you don't have them yet, the free Ultima Online game files, fetched from EA. Nothing else to find or patch.
3. Log in and choose your age
No sign-up form: type the account name and password you'd like, and your account is made on the spot. Then step into Renaissance, the UOR era, or Shadows, Age of Shadows with the Defiance Network content. One login opens both.
