Hello, Version 7 states that it can support a long campaign online.Is this a reference to the Mega campaign? Question is , how does one start a campaign,using online play button? Am able to play scenarios and generated battles. Great game!

I can not play online because what happens is when I click either online or timed online the program asks for name input, but has the name of my other computer in it already, if I try to change it or keep it the program quits and reverts back to my desk top. I asked this a few posts back (7.0 direct TCP/IP), I am wondering if you have the same problem?

Just making some beta testing with Paul Webber about this. You start an online campaign just the same way as solitaire one. When the computer asks you for player choice, you set second player as human.
This set SPWAW to come up to you with the save screen just after buying the support forces for the first scenario. When you reload that saved file, the sacond player will be prompted to buy his support forces. After that another save is requested. The same procedure continues until after the setup of the second player forces. At this point you start in online mode loading the saved gamed. This works until the end of the first scenario. We're working on the steps that will allow you, after tscore screen of the first scenario to proceed with the Fix screen. Hope this helps.
Ciao
