For two days, every time I have logged in to download my game, the screen stays with the message 'Communicating with Server' and tracks through the years 39 to 45 underneath.

Not downloading at all. Anyone experiencing same ?

No, did you update your Windows 10 OS two days ago?

I don't know. The game is running fine on my side. Perhaps the update has activated Windows Defender or something like this.
Obviously, you can go on Internet with your laptop, correct?

Did you try doing a pcap of what's going on when you go on multiplayer?
Anyone else on the forum has encountered the same issue?

Error game logs are here
C:\Users\"your user ID"\AppData\LocalLow\Kraken Studios\WarPlan\player.log

Very likely it has to do with your firewall or security though.

That section of the game hasn't changed in many months and has been working correctly.

Could be a corrupt game. Is it on all games or just this one?
