^- forget this, just heard that this is the normal version, with all the same problems.

Any clues about the issues? I have it on XP on my netbook, and can't get through training ... the game either starts black after selecting training or freezes soon after going through the first area.

Sounds like you need to use DDfix + apply an affinity fix to force it use single core only.

(http://www.robothobo.com/ddd/?p=3440&utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+DigitalDistributionDeals+%28Digital+Distribution+Deals%29) AI War + Expansion: $15 US on Steam, or $10 and $5 separately.

I got this game, plus expansion separately for $25 total. $15 isn't bad.
