Thanks guys. I'm sure the game is worth it, but at this stage of my life, no way am I spending that kind of money on a pc game

[X(] WOW ! Just saw the price, never mind. Thanks though.

Questions:

- does this game have scaleable levels of command, or is it a micro-management nightmare ? I.e., my only interest in the Pacific is carrier task forces.
Can one play the game in command of those only ?

Thanks in advance.

Try one of the PzC games, and you'll come to appreciate the DB games unit numbers <g> Around three times more units in the PzC games, for the same battle depicted............ugh.

Panzer Campaigns offers <B><s>[b]</s>three<e>[/b]</e></B> different supply models to choose from depending on how detailed a logistics model the player wants. No other series offers that many choices.

Atomic's W@W series of WWII games had a very good supply model as well. I'm not sure I'd say it was better, but it is at least as good; but different.

Some people do find the PzC series too complex. The DB series is simpler IMO.<br/>

Then again I generally prefer Guinness to, say, Labatts. It's great to sit down, relax, and savor a good rich ale. Then again after a hot day mowing the ...

I have recently become interested in playing games about Normandy again so I got out my copy of Panzer Campaign Normandy '44. After getting very used to Uncommon Valor, Highway to the Reich and Combat Mission, there seems to be a lot of ...

Charlie, I'll play a game if you want. I'm in the same boat turnwise/newbiewise.

Does "Overlord" by Max Hasting include maps and photographs?<br/>
<br/>
How many maps? Are they good maps? I really like to have good maps to follow the action.<br/>

Thanks again,<br/>

All, <br/>
Problem solved by disabling the playing of the initial movies through the use of the option file. I had to send John the options file because the problem occurred before the default one was created. <br/>

The reason I am asking about the option file is that it is created upon running for the first time (early at the program's execution). The fact that it does not exist on your system gives me more info about where the ...

John, Have you tried starting the game from the executable file in explorer? the file is korsun.exe. That bypasses the opening videos.
<e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE>
<br/>
Yep, just get a blank screen with a cursor then, that I have to ctrl-alt ...

Is there anyway to bypass/disable the opening videos, and any videos that try to kick in elsewhere ?

That is at least part of the problem.

<t> Knock, knock, anyone home ?<br/>
<br/>
Fyi, I have a very clean, basic system. Only one cd drive, no anti-virus, cd burner, etc. Only software is the os, which is win98.<br/>
<br/>
This is the only game I have that won't work. Hopefully get some answers today, or its back to the store(again ...

When you say you did a reinstall, did you uninstall the first version or simply install over or just delete the folder? Sounds like your registry settings may be amiss.. AlexS is the man he will sort it out for you.. hang in there..

I deleted the three intro. movies, to see if that would help. Game now goes to the opening screen, but when I click on any of the buttons there, I get two things:<br/>

Heres something potentially strange that I just noticed. The version number of the korsun.exe file in the game folder, and on the cd, are both 1.0.0.1, even though I've applied all the patchs to the exe in the game folder......
