Unfortunately, the Talonsoft versions do not run on Vista.

Fortunately, there is a new series available here:

Funny that you of all people Jason should mention the Matrix version. ;)

With Talonsoft having gone the way of the dodo, I find it unlikely a patch with be available.

Imagine that, eh?

Sorry, patch for Talonsoft's version. I've played by email on Vista and everything was working fine but when I open new scenario or campaign then problems starts.

In short: The Talonsoft version is an old version of the game that doesn't run on Vista.
The Matrix edition does run on Vista though. There is no official support for Talonsoft so a patch is highly unlikely since it has never been patched after Talonsoft abandoned it years ago.
The choices are:
-Buy the Matrix Edition
-Play Talonsoft version on pre-Vista OS.

There is no Matrix Edition in Poland. That on Matrixgames.com cost in Polish value like newest games hits.

I have one choice: install XP or sth
