What is the latest patch for the SC Gold Bundle? Thanks. Jim Cobb

Although the tutorial covers the basics, it doesn't include the expanded command bar. A PDF posted here might help.

The iPad version is super, very much like the PC version and way better than iPad Battle Academy. Campaigns are mentioned but, right now, we only have US and German scenarios. Well done, Battlefront!!

Actually, I tried to delete the pose. I figured the problem out.

Never mind.

This tip could apply to all games. I bought SC WWI and could launch it. Moon and Hubert were very helpful but hit a wall. I gave the machine to my local shop with orders to make the game run. They were almost stumped but one bright light looked at my register and found the remnants of a the Starcraft II theme. My point is: be careful loading themes.

What's this I read about a fixed setup version?

Demo runs fine so the problem is not my rig nor the program itself.

SandboxIE and Norman Security. The toolbar is the standard Windows one at the bottom of the screen where the Start button resides and shows which programs are running.

Just to make sure, I turned off my anti-virus/spyware programs. Still no go.

No,neither.

Hubert, No. After finishing the install and trying to launch absoluteky nothing happens; no image, no sound, nada.

I've installed the download but the game won't launch. The game appears on the tool bar but that's all.

So what you're saying is that the mission can be won either way.

Moon, I appreciate the offer but I did something dumb; I always pay for my mistakes. I got them to run using the Admin thing. Thanks.

I bought the games again and downloaded them, unlicensed and uninstalled the old, intalled the new. I could launch the game from set up but not the short cuts or the exe. Please advise.

Understood. Thanks.

I have Blitzkrieg, WaW and PDE. I migrated them to a new drive and now they won't start. No error message; just a blank screen. Please advise.

I've been trying to win the mission when the German squadron is attacked by the Brit squadron. Is this mission better played via the 2D map or on the3D side using the F keys? Thanks

Thanks. I see it now in the Options list. The manual doesn't have it; says "alt-C" does it.

I've tried to use the F key commands in every mode and I get nothing. I select all ships but no F key command works. Are they functional?

Why do you say it's incomplete? The lack of an editor?

I had the same problem; I torped them both manually. After so many restarts and following the "swishes" of the leader, I had to move on.

Great. Thanks.

I'm going to embarass myself here. In the first tutorial mission, I identify all the enemies (I think). When will I be instructed to start shooting? Thanks.
