So how do you start?

Can't believe I have to ask this question...

Never played before, just bought the Ultimate Comm Edition and looking at the Quick Start guide in the manual.

The manual says:

"To open the tutorial scenario first select the GIUK Battleset by clicking on its name in the text box and then clicking OK. This will bring up a list of 13 scenarios."

I selected Play Game at the game launcher and I see nothing anywhere in this game engine window that has anything to do with loading/selecting scenarios. I see no text box, and nothing anywhere that says anything about a "GIUK Battleset".

I fear this is going to be a very painful experience if I can't even get past the first sentence in the Quick Start guide. [8|]

Once you are in the game, go to File\New. That brings you to the BattleSet selector. You may want to uncheck "Instant Action" as it is the bit that confuses the situation by randomly selecting a scenario for you to play. In the battleset selector you can select the GIUK battleset as listed in the manual and continue but I would highly suggest the first scenario in WestPac as your scenario instead.

If you want a PDF copy of the orders for WestPac 1.0, grab them at http://harpgamer.com/harpforum/index.ph ... owfile=263

Ahhh, thank you!

The manual doesn't mention File/New it just starts in like you've already got the File/New menu open.
