What works
Single player mode, single battles and operations.
What does not
Videos. "Play Videos" must be disabled by editing "Videos" to zeros in the registry or it will immediate freeze up upon starting.
Options. If you attempt to change any game-play options using GUI, it immediately freezes up. I suspect that options can be changed by editing the registry too but have not tried.
Workarounds
What was not tested
Campaign mode, head-to-head mode.
Hardware tested

Additional Comments
If the initial splash screen flickers for ten seconds or so upon start-up, the game will not play. As a successful workaround, I have found that after opening with Wine, do not immediately hit "Play." Wait a while for some sort of magic to take place, then hit Play and it will work. Through rigorously controlled scientific testing, I have determined that the required wait-time for this magic to happen is equal to the time required to make a nice sandwich or two minutes, whichever is greater.
