What works
installation, campaign, battles, everything important (I was able to complete main campaign and many battles without single crash)
What does not
movies, main menu have animated background in windows, in wine there is only static image, loading screen have incorrect colours with any 16 bit resolution, sound gets sometimes corrupted (not very often, restarting game solves the problem), game is quite slow but playable, some troubles with mouse rotation during battles
Workarounds
