Although that isn't likely to be the issue unless they were playing it safe and Just playing the base game for a day or two before throwing new EPs into the mix.

Heh, I noticed that. Then I noticed mine doesn't mention AL and M&G and decided it was still worth mentioning, just in case theirs was wrong too. ^^
