Sarge - You'll have to be specific before we can help you. Is this a Mega Campaign, one of the other camps, such as Utah to the Rhine or a generated campaign?

Did you change anything in the gae: OOB's, the steel.prf file, an updated mech.exe? What version of the game are you playing?

If this is happening in the Long (WWII) Campaign, you may want to check out a thread by caribcat called "SPWAW 7.0 save game problem" from a few days ago. I was having the same problem, but gmenfan sent me a patch that fixed it.

Matt: Read this thread Beta 7.1 download location on location to download and instructions. Being you have hotmail it has an incoming email size restriction so it's easier if you download it.
