RE: Probably a long shot

<t> Thanks Edorf for the tip and the link. I bookmarked that for reference. The issue I was having was that the installer was not even launching, let alone giving me a menu to start the game. <br/>

I tinkered around with some things to see what was going on. I even was able to install WiTP ...

Unable to load game after installation

<t> I have downloaded the game 'To End All Wars' and the DLC. I have installed them, along with providing the proper SNs during the installs. Upon launching the game I get prompted for the serial number again. I enter both the serial numbers for the main game and the DLC but I get errors - I cut and ...

As for the cost, I justify my gaming purchase this way:<br/>

If a game costs $50 and I spend 50 hours playing it before I hang it up, I rationalize that my entertainment cost was $1 an hour. Not a bad ...

RE: 1.03 UPDATE

Just occured to me that H2H and PBEM are not the same. Will PBEM games have issues if patched midgame?

Sorry for the confusion

still playing here too....only so many gaming hours in a day. The best thing I can say is that I keep coming back to UV for a campaign or two before 'visiting' another game.

RE: Slow tactical battles

<r> Dunno - thats why I was asking. I can't imagine that tutorial battles with more units on screen take less time than campaign battles with slightly less units on screen. I played one turn and timed it and it took the AI 5:37 to complete its actions. There are 15 visible AI units on screen ...

Yes, the AI seemed to take its merry old time. The cursor spent a lot of time as the stopwatch icon. Forgot to mention I am playing For Liberty, not 1848.

Slow tactical battles

<t> Just wondering if anyone has experienced very slow tactical battles early on in the full campaign game. 4500 troops 12 guns vs 4700 troops 24 guns and it took an hour to get to turn 12 of 25.<br/>

I compare the slowness to the tutorial battles. I played the tutorial a few times to get ...

Don't want pretty or a two handed controller. Give me a keyboard and a mouse and make me think, and as long as I can tell the difference between an air, land and sea unit, I will be fine.

RE: 2.42B revisited

You and your PBEM opponet must be at the same patch level for PBEM games to work - most seem to like 2.3, but check under the opponets wanted forum to see what is preferred.
