I'd like to add my voice to those praising WIA. I bought AACW before I bought WIA,, but it was too much for me. Too many units + too many new rules = too confusing. So I bought WIA on the theory that everything would just kind of be smaller, making things easier to understand, and it turns out I was...

Hey, no problem at all. Happy to help. Just remember that the Wine App Database is your very best friend, as well as the Ubuntu (or whatever distro) games forums. Spend a little time with these and you'll learn the ins and outs of Wine game tweaking in no time. EDIT: Hmm. Your second post--the one I...

Rather than trying to explain what I saw in words, here is a recreation of my saved games list: 1861...

Ok, it's newbie question time. However, first let me say that I've been playing wargames for 35 years and...wait, no, that's a lie (SLAP!). I actually stopped playing them about 20 years ago and switched to videogames. I did go through a pretty heavy Steel Panthers phase back when that game was firs...
