Re: Game crash: Commander Europe at War Gold and Ports

Hello again Thank you for your most generous offer to help: much appreciated. Before you kindly responded, I managed to enlist the aid of my sister who has considerably more computer skills than I and after a somewhat tortuous process we (or should I say "she") solved the problem and the g...

Re: Game crash: Commander Europe at War Gold and Ports

Hello Please accept my apologies. I assumed (wrongly, my fault) that you were a Slitherine employee. Again my apologies. You can sense my frustration with Slitherine/Matrix: I have purchased 2 games in the past 6 weeks and neither have worked, resulting in prolonged and to me confusing correspondenc...

Re: Game crash: Commander Europe at War Gold and Ports

Further to my "SUMMARY" (see earlier --- reply awaited) there is a now a further major problem:
regarding e) The Grand Strategy Expansion v 2.0 will NOT launch using the Slitherine launcher (which was reached by pressing the screen icon).
How do I get this game to work?

Incidentally 3): The version I am playing is CEAW v 1.12. Is this the lates...

Re: Game crash: Commander Europe at War Gold and Ports

Thank you for the info.
1) Game crash. I'll do as you say.
2) No I'm aware that garrisons can't be loaded and there was ample space. As an example playing Allies, the Allied unit in Canada could not be loaded.
Do you have any more thoughts
Kind Regards John Nicholson

Thanks. The problems are: 1) The game cr...

operation sealion expansion pack

I have today downloaded the relevant patch, but now find that it is necessary to purchase the expansion pack. Your website says that this is out of stock and there is no reference to it on Amazon. Could you advise what is the latest position in terms of availability as I am interested in purchasing.

Hello Pip
I have still not received an answer to why the scenary was ruined and what steps I can take to avoid a repetition of this problem.
Is there some scenary or object icon that triggers the start of this phenomenon?
Regards,

No, objects on the map did not suddenly turn into Arnhem objects. When I purchased the basic game only the three basic terrain types were available. Having purchased the Blitzkreig module, Arnhem objects have been added to the scenary menu. I used some of these on the new map that I was building.Whi...

Editor Blitzkreig France

Please advise procedure to include units in extension pack into Editor mode. I created a new folder for the new extension, but new extension pack units were not available in the list of fixed units that could be included. Only the basic game units were offered. Is some additional action required?

AI ABILITIES

Could you kindly advise if it is possible to improve the all round ability of the AI, particularly in the context of improving their abilities to hit and destroy a target. Too many instances of 88mm shells deflecting from vulnerable low armoured rearward facing AFVs.
With thanks
