I finally got the Warlord Edition. I've started playing 3 times, but each time the game screws up and I have to start over again.

I figure I have an old version so I'm on my way to the Downloads to get updated.

On a completely different but related topic (can that happen?) What Mongol units are good? And is there any time in which you can start building your own units, or do you only get reinforcements?

You ALL have to change where you're from.

Bubba, welcome to the wonderful world of MI/WE. Mongol cavalry are the best...

Mongol light cavs are the fastest unit in the game and fire deadly arrows.
Mongol heavy cavs are the strongest unit in the game stats-wise.

Get patch 1.02 to balance out more the units.

Have fun!

Bubba I think the reason why it is it is corrupted, is because that you haven't bought the game originally, I think u have a cracked/burned version! Am I right?

If not I think you should try to uninstall completely and install again, and DON'T touch the .exe file, then u can apply the patch!

He said nothing about _his_ files being corrupted but rather the patch when he went to install. Don't jump to conclusions about people. If the download is truncated, that is exactly the message you'll get. The complete ShogunWv1.02_Euro.exe is reported as "6.91MB (7,250,944 bytes) 7,254,016 bytes used" under Win98SE if you want to confirm your download.

Plus, as someone who religiously removes safe-disc "protection" from the games he pays hard earned cash for, I've yet to see a patch that cares. The patch checks the version, replaces your cracked executable with an uncracked new one - and then you crack it again.

Bubba, the patch is available at totalwar.com as well.

Another hint: Due to excessive system tinkering http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/smile.gif I too often find myself in need of reinstalling Windows. After a recent clean install of Windows (but leaving my programs alone), I found that if you play Shogun without it being officially installed under Windows that save games can become corrupted. You play along and, bang, hello desktop. I reinstalled everything fresh and the game and me are happy again.

I've tried the one at TotalWar.com and had no luck, I'm going to try the Org's files again.

And in reply to Sjakihata Akechi, no I didn't get a burned version. I got mine from Electronics Boutique (sp?) for $19.99.

I've downloaded it two more times and gotten this both times: "Zip file damaged, trunacated, or has been changed since it was created. If you downloaded this file, try downloading it again.

Try here:

I think, though, there's either something wrong with your net connection or your system. I just downloaded the file hosted here on the .org and the one from the patches-scrolls.de link I posted and both are fine.

Oh, someone email the poor son the patch. probably the browser d/l function is bad.
I will email you Bubba when I get home from work, about +3 hrs if u still having trouble.

What variant are u using? MI or WE? Can your email provider accomodate 7MB file?

I tried Sword_Monkey's site, and it didn't work. Because it did for him I'm going to have to assume that it's my server that's messed up. I'm with AOL 7.0 which has quite a few glitches left.

Yes, I can download a 7mb email attachment tootee. I'm using Warlord Edition (WE)

I also have AOL 7.0 and I can never get past logging on when trying to log onto Shogun server. Tis very annoying. Anyone else have this problem about not being able to log on?
