True, but it didn't resolve anything for GOG users specifically. Also, people nowadays don't like someone necroposting for ridiculous reason.

Sorry to hear that.
I have not yet seen any problem reported from a gog install with the 1.32 version I linked above in my install guide.
But of course the numbers are tiny and I do not even know if someone else with a gog version attempted it (could have been slitherine/matrix only so far ...

No more reply. GOG user is being left behind yet again. Very unfortunate, but guess that's what I have to pay for affordable Non-DRM version of wargames. I thank everyone who tried to help me with this problem.

did you try the reg patch file ? u can find it here : just launch the reg file before installation

That reg file basically removes all information, including key, from registry, which I never have with GOG version. Still tried it ...

Under "3." There is a "noSteam" version of 1.32 linked:

https://www.slitherine.com/forum/viewto ... 7&t=106604

Please report back if that one works for your gog install.

I tried that, didn't work as well. Same CRC problem.

All the downloads for 1.32 that I've found either throw CRC error or base game unlocked only. A download or a guide for GOG would be appreciated.

My friend couldn't play his turn in multiplayer. Every single time he tried to by pressing the play button, the game would download the files, but didn't give anything afterward. Any help here would be appreciated, even a redirect to someone who can help.

This is a great game, so great I bought ...

Perhaps you can help through beta testing that you can register. I'm currently hoping to get the 2nd wave.

Didn't make the cut as well. Here's hoping for next beta chance! :)


Darn. Guess I didn't make the cut. Now I'm just bothered that there are people who have had access to the game for a whole day, and not one of them has posted here about it.

Come on people, you got the invites. It's time to ...

Still haven't received a mail to this day...

Signed up. Here's hoping for the code in my mail soon!

Yeah, perhaps putting bonus score towards the attacker side if they win will promote them to advance.

Okay. I played by email Planetfall. For 4 and 6 people. Oddly enough, but the full batch took us three months. We did 1-2 moves a day. The timer was set to automatically transfer the progress after three days. There were several major battles between the players. A number of small skirmishes ...

I recommend you to get acquainted with the game Age of Wonders: Planetfall. It just implemented the game mode by e-mail with tactical battles. The game looks great. Regarding playing online: I don't need a perfect balance. I need interesting opponents. AI does not meet this criterion.

In that ...

Am not sure if I am understanding this right, but does it mean the defender army is declared the winner if the scores remain low ?
That would I think promote more static games where one side could sit in a defensive position. So in a paired match you might end up with two non event battles with ...

I do not really understand why the same PBEM mode could not be put into the game from the very beginning? A good example is the "Shadow Empire" . Alas, I do not believe in adequate AI.


Building a PBEM system to a game like Master of Magic is not recommended at all because it has more detailed ...

Just a suggestion from me. Declaring an attacker and defender army will determine the victor of score below 25 difference or 0-0 easier after 24 turn runs out, which is the defender. It also makes more sense historical wise in my opinion because a battle only happen when one army wants to attack ...

I would like a dedicated keyboard button for mark wait/skip unit. It's not too necessary, but it'd be helpful when I press TAB to search for inactive troops and not selecting the ones I want to stand by. I don't have any idea where and how to put the button in the UI part, but not putting any is ...

Yes, the advertisement of Slitherine might not be good enough. I already noticed this with Fantasy General, which is a decent game which somehow didn't get enough attention.

Maybe, Slitherine is just not well known enough, maybe let's players are not picking up on the games or the story ...

Yepp, I just hope they add multiplayer.

You really have an opening here: A *lot* of people don't like Civilization 6 and Humankind because they try to 'educate' their players.

I'm quite sure that games like Witcher 3 and Skyrim have in part become so successful because they don't do that ...
