And I imagine that the Alpha will last at least 3 months, or 2 1/2. I got into the War3 beta and it started early Feb, and just ended June 24th.
And no, you don't have to give it back, but after they shut down their alpha servers, it won't work anymore so it would be pointless to keep it. But hey, whatever floats your boat.

you will keep the actual CD but the multiplayer server will be shut off and the CD will be worthless...

you are "the keng of speiling"
if I had the alpha, I'd choose Zeus. I want to try out those nasty Myrmadons.
Also, please stop gloating. You're making me sick and others who are still hoping to get the alpha angry. This post in itself isn't bad, but the final line of your signature makes me want to punch my monitor.

*takes tin man to his anger management class*
The WC3 beta was unusually long, and they were trying to balance their game. The AOM alpha probably won't be very long, a couple months at most, and they have all sorts of tricks up their sleeves for ending play time with this version. Shutting down the servers, as it's gonna be MP only no doubt, having the EXE file expire, and so on...
