Hi and welcome, there's been a lot of new Single Player campaigns by Cuthalion recently and we're just trying to fix an issue where GameRanger (multiplayer lobby) doesn't load our extra armies. However, once it is fixed then we can all play Dark Elves v Skaven multiplayer on new maps etc.. which will encourage new and old players to join in the fun!

I'm always on GameRanger welcoming new players so hope to see you on the battlefield soon.

Ah ok, Thanks :) cant wait to play this game again, its been almost 15 years!!

bit off topic, but
Ive actually installed the game now, and i get the flickering bug... i tried to change the nvidia settings with no avail, i think i need to update my nvidia anyways.

any other ways around this problem besides changing loads of video settings?

Our Chat Channel can be accessed via http://chat.dark-omen.org (http://chat.dark-omen.org)  Server: irc.euirc.net  Channel: #dark-omen but using mIRC is better.

All live players should Host a game on GameRanger so others can see them to join.
