What works
CFW's main menu, sound (see below for details), video.
What does not
CFW cannot be played in full screen mode because the game gives a black screen, a workaround is to use a wine's virtual desktop and running the game in a window.
Indeo Codec is needed to play sound and can be downloaded from: http://www.moddb.com/mods/gametypes/downloads/conquest-frontier-wars-audio-codec
Mouse Input: It's impossible to play because units and platforms cannot be selected.
Workarounds
What was not tested
Installer: I have copied the installed CFW's directory into wine's C: drive
Because mouse input doesn't work, it's impossible to test extended gameplay.
Hardware tested

Thanks to Emeraude for the fixes.
Conquest can not run on this graphic card
Edit conquest.ini and replace 'IRenderPipeline = RendSft' with 'IRenderPipeline = Rend0'.
Game crashes trying to play intro
launch game with /skipmovies, i.e ; 'wine conquest.exe /skipmovies'
Audio problems
`winetricks icodecs`
Mouse problems
In game options, uncheck "enable directinput"
