Can't Install Expansion Packs

Post by TableTop66 »

Hi all I just brought the Main game along with all the expansions. I'm having problems installing the Blitzkrieg France & Market Garden expansion packs.

When i start the installer for these two add ons a screen shows asking for serial number which i then enter and press next.

It then claims game is up to date and proceeds no further returning to desktop.

The other two expansion packs Operation Sealion & Operation Husky proceed past the serial number screen and look to install in the Slitherine folder as normal.

So my question is why wont the Blitzkrieg France & Market Garden packs install?

I've tried uninstall & reinstall with same results.

All help much appreciated

Cheers Jimbo

If you already have all the correct files (e.g. you have the latest updates) then the installer will only set up the expansion serials and then exit. This is by design. If you go into the game then you should be able to play the expansions without issue.

You can also directly enter your serials via the game launcher, via the Register Expansions button.

Okay I understand now. I uninstalled and reinstalled checking each time I installed each expansion.

I have installed each expansion according to release date, bringing the game up to date correctly

and all is working well.

I must say the Blitzkrieg France & Market Garden expansions install was a little bit different from

what I'm used to, kind of feels like I Brought a 253 megabyte key.

I must say this is a fun game and I am impressed by how the expansions integrate into the main game

and don't look like some after thought, well done.

Cheers [:)]
