RE: Game won't start

World at War won't fire either. Looks like same launcher as War in Europe. WWI fires up but looks like different Matrix launcher...

Game won't start

Running from Steam. I've uninstalled and reinstalled twice. Rebooted my computer several times. I try to start from the Matrix start menu but it won't fire.

Not having any troubles with SC WW I.

RE: Just purchased...game won't start

Is there a step by step thread for installing the game and using Seabee to get it to run in Windows 10? I read and reread the Seabee thread and am pretty confused. The application's options are pretty much greek to me.

In Seabees I assume I need to make a desktop shortcut. I tried autodetect method. If I do it manually, what exe file to I navigate too? Autorun or something else?

Good learning scenarios and resources?

Just played Kasserine Pass to a decisive victory and Tannenberg to a draw. Played a fewer of the other smaller ones too. What are other good scenarios to learn from? I just tried Singapore as the Commonweath and it was pretty easy. Might be harder as the attacker...

Suggestions?

Cool. Thanks! It's April and I'm in position so I'll give it a go.

Couple of dumb questions:
- Do you mean red (not blue) shipping lanes? And how do you set Uboats to "raid" mode? There is a hunt and a silent mode. I click "hunt" and it doesn't allow me to select that...

Axis 1939 play through looks like the natural place to start. <br/>
