You wake up in a dark room with a bruise on your head and your left leg chained to a pipe. On the ground next to you, you see a rusted spoon with a note that reads,"You know what to do".

Can someone help me, I can't seem to get this mod to work.
When I use the Installer, it automatically tries to path the installation to my Microsoft Games folder instead of my Steam folder. When I change the path it gives me "setup error" and closes the installer. When I allow it to install in the Microsoft Games folder, its successful, but when I try and boot up the mod from the shortcut, it notes that it can't find my AOEIII executable (no duh, that's why I was trying to install it in the proper folder) and when I use the browse tool to properly direct it, it boots the game unmodded.
How the hell do I fix this?

This is without a doubt the most unbalanced mod I've ever played for COH, at least it's only in Beta.

To be fair that is realistic, Mark Is and beyond were designed primarily to cross trenches while the A7V was designed to function as a mobile bunker.

If your just playing with him you could establish a gentleman's rule not to use tanks.

Actually the AEF supported both the French and British and since they used French Armor and Material they would be more in line with the upcoming French faction. I Still maintain that if the AEF are to be added at all that they just be a skin option for the French but even then I would like to wait until the planned factions are created first.

Why have America? That would mean the Entente would have three factions to choose from while as the Central Powers you could only choose Germany. That seems a bit one-sided don't you think? Not in terms of size but diversity and if you didn't much care for the Imperial German Army then you would have no options for the Central Powers. I'd rather just keep the 2v2 faction distribution.

I'm guessing the munition depletion is to prevent early Lewis guns

I'm looking forward more to the French than to any triple A game coming out in the next two years.

Reminds me of the famous scene from "All Quiet On The Western Front" when their division's old hand instructs them to use their spades instead of bayonets because they don't get stuck in the enemy's gullet.

Well since most tactical innovations between 1918 and the Gulf war were a result of technological innovation, I think his claim has some ground to stand on. After all it was the Great War that invented modern "Combined Arms" strategy, a strategy that is now the over-arching theme of every theatre of war.

Right-click TGW's desktop shortcut, click on properties, then on the target line type the phrase '-dev' (don't forget a space before the '-') at the end of the target location and then click 'ok' on the bottom of the page. Then simply double-click the shortcut as you normally would.

Currently COH does not allow a game(match) to launch with foreign DLLs in the game. This is why EF is currently not working because the two factions they created were not made from an existing faction and were therefore blocked by the latest patch for COH. Since there was 4 factions in the final release of retail COH, having four factions made from modified DLLs of the four original factions works (this is why BK mod still works). So TGW's current goal of 4 factions will be compliant to the current modifications placed on COH.

I did not mean to be insulting, only to show an example of a moderate failure within the COH modding community. For what ever reason, even after months of beta and over a year of development the Ostheer had some issues and bugs so we should be patient if we want to expect quality and so far TGW has supplied nothing but that.

Well yes, did you not see the presentation on the upcoming French Faction just above this section? As for when that will be done: patience, goods things don't come quickly. It took forever for EF to release the Ostheer and even then the faction was an incomplete mess.

The very title of this mod discounts the addition of the Ottomans. By 1918 they were unofficially out of the war so I don't think "relevant" is the right word, especially when the devs have continually said that the mod will only be based in the West; the Spring Offensive specifically if i'm not mistaken.

Nope, only SPG was the Mark I SPG (British). It was produced but never got to fire a single round.

Well Austria-Hungary will be released after France if what you are asking is if the central powers will get any new units

The German armored car (Ehrhardt E-V/4) can transport a single squad, besides that there is no transport vehicles.

There has been something I've been meaning to ask on the forums but I am having trouble re-locating them so I'll post it here: Why does the Bergmann MP-18 upgrade for Stormtroopers only give them a single MP-18? I'm not asking for the entire squad to get upgraded (even though that would be awesome) instead maybe giving 2-3 members Bergmanns or at the very least reduce the upgrade cost since 75 munitions for a single SMG is a little much.

Me and my friend have the same version and we checked and made sure all our folders matched but whenever we try and join each-other's game it says they are incompatible versions. Does multiplayer just not work for this mod?

Any time I set up a custom Battle the game crashes 2-minutes in.
