1) You have my sympathy for loosing the disk, but how could you have been so.......intelligent to loose the most important part of a game.

2) Perhaps it has something to do with the relationship with Export_Descr_units and Descr_strat. If, lets say (I had this probelm) the rebels at the start have cretan archers on Kydonia. I made rebels incapable of having them in the "ownership" section and thus couldn't start a campaign. Perhaps you should check them. If you need any more orriginal files PM me with your e-mail.

Remember, respect you games. The CD, the Manuals, the box must all be respected. They're the only thing keeping you from loosing your sanity in this world.
