The devs are contractually bound not to generate a profit off it and I don't think they want this on steam for various reasons...

Why? There are plenty of free games on Steam.

Don't ask me on the details of the license!

Fireblasto, as usual, is just babbling. Yes, the team is not able to make any money with this project. No, that doesn't necessarily rule out seeing Leejunz on steam. But getting games on there is a) not easy, and b) should definitely not be done for Leejunz until it's in a far more finished state (the same reason why you don't see any advertisement etc.).

<3 you too. Gheist gets very annoyed with me.
On topic: I did provide one of the main reasons, but I'm not the most avid steam user, so I never knew there was even a free section.

It's nearly impossible to get legions on steam in the state it is now.

its not only "not simple", it cant be done what so ever, now or any time soon. theres a difference between dreams and reality.

As that german nut cracker and others always say: "Legions is far from finished!" ~ Game Over!
Not able, or mustn't?

But once Legions is finished then putting the game up on Steam would IMO do no harm. Oh and I'm sure that if you dig for long enough in the license w/ a lawyer or any expert then you'll be likely to find a workaround for generating profit from the game. The first thing that comes up to my mind when thinking of a workaround is the way Treyarch is generating money from Black Ops multiplayer servers.
Anyway Steam integration would be nice in the future.

That'd be pretty dishonest, and would just about destroy the reputation of the development team. In my eyes, at least, honor trumps paycheck.
Just wait till Legions is finished. Maybe then we will have a chance to see Legions on steam or other ways to make Legions public. and i really mean public, not just what we have here...

if you want to give them your money.
also, if you want legions in steam, just add the launcher.exe to steam... it works fine!
