Having purchased WITW & TORCH awhile back I am now finally ready to actually install. My question involves on the proper sequence to install both. Here's what I think I should do:

1. Gary Grigsby's War in the West PC Installer
Version v.1.00 (2 DEC 2014)

2. Gary Grigsby's War in the West: Operation Torch PC Installer
Version v.1.01.01 (5 OCT 2015)

3. Gary Grigsby's War in the West: Operation Torch Public Beta Update v1.01.68
Version v.1.01.68 (30 JUN 2017)

4. Gary Grigsby's War in the West PC Update v1.01.68
Version v.1.01.68 (4 OCT 2017)

5. Gary Grigsby's War in the West 1.01.72 Beta
Version v..72 Beta (18 OCT 2017)

I derived this based on the list for WITW and TORCH in my Members Downloads. Seems the 1.01.68 for TORCH and then same for WITW seems a bit odd.

To answer one of my own questions, the 1.01.68 in the TORCH downloads is a BETA, and the 1.01.68 in WITW downloads is PC update. So I am ignoring the TORCH 1.01.68 BETA.

you could actually skip 3 AND 4 as 5 is a comprehensive update.

I have a similar conundrum, although in my case I already installed WITW v. 1.00, and the v. 1.01.68 update -- and then subsequently purchased Operation Torch (it was on sale for next to nothing), which I have not yet installed. Given that Torch predated 1.01.68, can I safely install the former now, or would that cause problems for running Torch scenarios (or for WITW as a whole)? I'm wondering if I would be best advised to uninstall WITW entirely and start over with WITW v. 1.00, then Torch, then the 1.01.68 update.

Install Torch then re-apply the 1.01.68 update (or a later variant)
