    Sounds like they really screwed up the copy protection on C3C.

    I just bought it and installed it (with my DVD-ROM), and the EXE performs an illegal operation every time I run it. I tried putting the CD in my other drive (DVD-R), and it pops up a different error that tells me to eject the CD and put it back in.

    I tried it on my other computer and it worked fine, but on my main machine I had to download a little "wink wink nudge nudge" to get it working. I'm sure this would also fix the PTW problem.

    You can't say that it's unethical to defeat the copy protection if the game doesn't work otherwise.
    To secure peace is to prepare for war.

      Thanks y'all
      I have decided that I'll purchase C3C once the patch comes out. And if it doesn't.... I'll grumble a lot more than I am now about it, and hope that fixes the problem.

        Keep in mind too that this is a BETA patch, not fully tested. It is out as a present for us unsatiable addicts, but there may well be more patches to come. This game will be the most stable yet.

          Also keep in mind that Amazon has Conquests for $10(!!!) right now.

          I can't think of a good reason not to get it at that price. In fact, we just bought two(one for my wife) and even if she just plays twice, it's about the same as a game rental for a console.

            Beta patch, $10 at amazon, and the cool scenarios make C3C the winner.
