Great! But In certain scenarios, like in 1916 The Big Push and in 1919 Shadow of the Tsars, I'm getting a crash error. Possibly affects other scenarios, but these two for sure. In Matrix installation as well as in Steam. Crash ERROR message reads:

FAILED(draw_sprite_on_map_surface): Segmentation violation

With apologies if this has already been asked and answered. I have Strategic Command Classic WWI will the new DLC work with it? Thanks!

[Replying here, too] Yes! That was it! I disabled certain graphic mods being used in World War I campaigns. Scenarios seem to work ok now. Thank you, Mr. Runacre!

No, this DLC requires the newer Strategic Command World War I (the 3rd generation of SC games).

Purchased. Hopefully i can get into this game again after a long hiatus - I'd still like to finish that mod!

Is this to be covered under Matrix's next Winter/Holiday sale?

Does anyone know if and when that sale commences?

Thanks.

I would guess not as there is 60% Steam Publisher Sale on the base now, but nothing on this DLC. So, no point waiting for a Maxtrix Winter sale.
