Returning to SPWAW after many years

As the title suggests I'm returning to SPWAW after a fair number of years. Last time i played seriously was when the Lost Vicotries Campaign was released.

The years have moved on and so has technology. I have my original download of SPWAW, downloaded in the dark years of dial up! and thats about it as LV is currently 'whereabouts unknown'.

A few questions though

1) Will SPWAW run under Vista?
2) Does the depot still exist?
3) I remember many graphic packs with loads of cool different unit models and such. Which ones are the current best ones on offer?

Thanks for your time and responses

I have Vista and it runs just fine. You may have to make a new shortcut from the exe. file and then give it the permission to run as an administrator program...but after I did that it has never suffered an issue.

The Depot is still there...head on over and take a look what is new since you last played.

And finally go with the latest version of the Enhanced Mod...IMO it rocks.

PS...Welcome back! [;)]
