Re: GB20 "To the Right" How Did You Beat it?

In my anniversary edition the rear objective is only worth 25 points per minute. That is 1500 points max if you hold for the entire hour. Is this the correct value for the objective?

Re: Infantry charges against artillery

Thanks for the response. I assume from your response that fresh troops will charge and take a battery. If fatigued troops are in double time mode and run over artillery, they apparently don't fight them.

Thanks again.

Infantry charges against artillery

When I charge unprotected artillery, my soldiers charge right through and have no impact. The artillery just keeps firing. If I stop and fire, I do inflict casualties but at a terrible cost to my infantry. What is wrong?

Windows 8

Hi,

Will the program run on windows 8. I have the program and played on my old computer. I tried to download the demo, and I can't run the file. I also don't have my activation code, so I can't reactivate my game.

Sounds like a mess doesn't it.

Re: Patch 1.3 Problem

Wait a second! I have not installed the 1.2 patch. I am running the 1.102 version - does it record the score for GB19? Perhaps there is fairness in SOWGB yet!!!!

Re: Patch 1.3 Problem

<t>Hi,<br/> <br/> I discovered that when I orginally download the game I created a SOWGB file folder on my C: drive under programs. That file opens and runs the game correctly and contains my latest high scores. Do I need to move this game to a folder direct under my C: drive? I read somewhere that ...

Patch 1.3 Problem

<t>Hi,<br/> <br/> I downloaded and installed the 1.3 patch. Now when I start the game it wants an activation code. If I give it my activation code it says it is already in use. Since I can't bring up the game now, I can't deactivate. Can you tell me what action I can take that will keep from losing ...
