hey man, so far i was able to run Warwind from the command prompt (running as administrator).... but... it shows some horrible and unorganized pixels. Then i click on the screen, and at left clicking a wizard appears asking me to fill information to play multiplayer or single player.. i choose single player and fill all the info (map to play, race, etc) and then i click "play", but it returns me to the horrible barf of pixels :'(

if i workaround this i'll keep it posted

It's an old game, so probably incompatible with newer versions of windows. Try some kind of virtual machine running windows 98 or XP. Otherwise, I'm not sure.

the section that starts with "The game also has some major flaws" needs to be removed. The only flaw that is mentioned is (in different ways) the difficulty level(too high). There is a enemy difficulty slide, that you can change anytime. Also the different races equals different difficulty levels.
