Welcome aboard, Gonzo! Drinks on me since you're having a problem

I had this problem myself a long time ago, but I can't remember what caused it or how I fixed it.

You have Jutland, so I suggest using the bug report link in the Start\All Programs\Storm Eagle Studios\Jutland folder to send in a report on this.
Or you can just go to it directly http://www.stormeaglestudios.com/rea...k/rdlogin.aspx

The bug server is for both games. Just be sure you state that this problem is with the RJW game (in both the subject and the body). Also, it would help to attach the game_log.txt file (in the main game directory) after you have a run where the game crashes like this.

I would really like to buy this software (I think the campaign game looks fascinating), but I want to make sure it works before I do. If waiting for Distant Guns 1.5 to come out is the right answer, I can do that.
I can't say for sure because Jim hasn't told me what we plan to sell 1.5 for, but I suspect that buying the current version of the RJW now and upgrading to 1.5 will be cheaper than buying 1.5 from scratch. Jim's said in our main forum that 1.5 will be a "nominal fee" for existing RJW customers. But no promises on this, because I have no way of knowing for sure.

The RJW campaign is one of the most interesting available in naval history. It's all a big "what if" because in real life, the Russians basically sat there and waited to die. So the campaign assumes that had they been more aggressive, they might have won, but will certainly lose if they do nothing.
