"AI Spire Shield Guard Post Mark..." supposed to exist in the licensed base game 5.0?

Yes.

"AI Spire Shield Guard Post Mark..." supposed to exist in the licensed base game 5.0? I have the expansions installed, but have not purchased licenses for those yet. They are deactivated in my game and were deactivated when I started it. Just noticed that.
Yes, just like the "Spire Starship" unit that's been in the game since before the first expansion.  These guard posts were added later, but are part of the base game.

There's also a few Zenith and Neinzul units that are base-game.

Thanks for the heads up.

Yes -- I have heard back from them now. Looks like LotS and 5.0 will be coming on the 14th to steam. It's a ways off, I know, but at least it's a concrete date now! Thats just what worked with their schedule, given that I couldn't tell them in advance when the stuff would be ready. They were all ready to go two weeks ago, and then we hit that desync issue and missed that window; now other games are keeping them busy.

Anyway, so don't be mad at steam, it's as much my fault as theirs. Most devs leave a lot of lag time between finishing a product and releasing it for this very reason. But I always want to get it into players' hands as soon as possible, you know me. That has a lot of plusses, but it's also hard on our distributors, particularly when we run into an unexpected last minute delay (I believe this was the first that was THAT last minute, though).

On the wall is a comic strip of a computer, a man, and a very angry woman.  The man is sitting at the computer.  The woman is glaring at the man.  The man is saying "but honey, it's co-op!".  The woman is striking down the man.

The computer is burning.

We must remember too that Steam is run by Valve, who operate on Valve Time  ;)
