What works
All features of normal gameplay, tested on both game and the expansion running on the original and most recent patches:
Random Map
Campaign
Scenario
Scenario Builder
What does not
Network Play.
Intro movie.
Installer shows no images and is not clickable. You have to move around using tab. There is a patch available on bug #28011 that fixes this.
Colours are not properly drawn on some text. Therefore black text on black background occurs on scenario instructions and all but god-tier unit (they have a golden background) queuing, so you can't know how many you've queued.
Game lags noticeabily at 1.5x and 2.0x speed. Not noticeable at 1.0x.
Workarounds
What was not tested
Network play with overriden DLLs.
Hardware tested

Additional Comments
Everything tested "as is" out of the box. No patches or overrides. Windows 95 compatibility. You must have a MIDI synthesizer such as Timidity configured and running to hear the music. This is not the game's fault. The game manual is broken and doesn't render properly, thus unusable. This is unrelated to the game itself.
