Reloading OoB
After major computer failure I need to start again with Order of Battle on a new computer using all my registered versions. What is the correct implementation sequence starting with the free intro, all the DLCs except Kreigsmarine, the 64b conversion, any other updates or mods and ending at Endsieg. Thank you
