Well, I got the thing to load by setting the ww1.exe compatibility to Win95 and run as admin. I still couldn't progress through the turns, even with the single core .bat file, until I manually set affinity to all the distinct cores (i.e. 0, 2, 4, 6). As CP, I eventually got to combat resolution of t...

Doesn't work for me under win 7 - 64 bit. Just sits at the "Initializing Game" with the music playing. edit to add: It takes 5 minutes to get past that screen and on to the menu, and about 9 minutes till the first tutorial map was shown. I've done all the troubleshooting steps as well like using the...

Do all the scenarios have a turn limit? Turn limits always make me like I am pressed for time and I feel rushed.

Once that is done, you won't need the CD in the drive. I bought a download version, then started through the ba...

Thanks for the answers

Hello,
