I purchased Across The Dnepr and Kharkov Disaster on the Donets recently. Unfortunately games can not be played because when I start the new game UI looks like in image. I think that something is missing?

edit - need more coffee.

From Carl Myers: it is the screen one gets when one plays against the computer as the Soviets in Kharkov.

tks Carl!

That screen above is the replay screen.
 
You are watching the replay.
 
You can issue orders after the replay is finished or if you stop the replay.

The replay screen would have a fifth(<-) button to reset the replay.

He has started the game as the German player in a game against the AI
&nbsp;
Th Russians go first
&nbsp;
He is watching the Russian turn.
&nbsp;
After the Russian turn is complete, then he can play his turn!

Hit any of the four buttons to see the Computer (Russian) turn 1 moves. Each button allows a different display of the AI turn as it happens.

=> button: Plays entire AI turn (all AI opponent moves) without break
=>| button: Plays AI turn one move at a time
art advisor button: Plays all AI moves until a combat or artillery strike (then pauses AI turn for you to see result of action)
combat button: Plays all AI moves until a combat (then pauses AI turn for you to see result of combat)

Hitting "x" ends AI turn before the AI can complete all its moves.

It is not a replay, the Soviet Player(AI) has not moved yet because the German player has not started the AI turn.

Yes, it is, of course, necessary to let the AI play its turn first. Comments above edited.
