Thanks . . . Have passed a screen shot of the above to Saint Ruth (Brian Kelly) our coder. No question, a bug. Don.

It's "41_11_The Rats vs The Ram" that I tested.

Hi, you should be able to change the language from the start menu, down the bottom, if you select the flag and then choose another flag.

Oh, strange. It should work... Desert War is being completely revamped so these issues and others will all be fixed.

With this setting, only the briefing changes! Does the scale remain at 2 mils? I also bought Stalingrad :) Merry Christmas to you all!

Yes . . . All of Desert War is 3,200 meters per hex or 2 miles. Both Stalingrad and Overlord are 2,500 meters (per hex).

The upgrade for Desert War will include all of the new features found in Stalingrad and Overlord + a new map (2,500 meters per hex).

Working Overlord bugs right now. Overlord v2.0.1 out soon. Next Overlord on Steam. Then (for Desert War) the “big hurtle” converting the map.

Hi, as the upgrade to the scenarios is taking too long, we'll just patch up Desert War with the latest improvements and release with the old scenarios both here and on steam.
Just testing it at the moment so won't be too long now.
Cheers,
Brian
