Where do I register my copy of PON?

I have a hard copy which is a part of a collection called 'AGEOD's Military Strategies II' including also Napoleons Camp's and WW1. Licence keys are all inside the game box. I install the game, click on register tab and it links me to Paradox forum page which does not include a PON option....just every other game! grrrrrr! I had a look on here and couldn't find where to register it. This is so frustrating. Some help would be really great.
cheers,
Hamish

Hi
you don't need (indeed cannot, I believe) register your games on the AGEOD forum. I'd guess the keys etc tie back to the period when AGEOD was with Paradox as Paradox used the registration process to limit access to some game forums (mostly tech support, sometimes mods etc).
so jump in, enjoy and ask questions

d3dx9_31.dll missing

Thanks so much for that. Sadly I cannot play it because a "d3dx9_31.dll missing" message appearing every time I hit play game. Im patched to 1.03 and, actually, I assumed the "d3dx9_31.dll missing2 message was related somehow to not having registered it. I have reinstalled DirectX and still no cigar. There is no way I am downloading the missing .dll file so without options I wont get to play this game. Shame, it looked good.

You might consider sending a private message to Pocus or Philthib, the developers. They are great guys, and they might be able to help you. This is a great game, and you should not miss out on it.

If you want, here is the dll file you are missing. Feel free to download it and add it to your game directory.

ah, thanks guys. Turns out I was being a moron and installing the wrong DirectX file...I updated it and it runs now. It looks amazing too. I guess thats goodbye weekend.
Thanks for the help though, really appreciated
