Couldnt find the answer anywhere on the boards, so here goes: Making History Gold, when I save a game from the host computer on my LAN and then try to play it, the second computer can join my loaded game and select their nation to play, but I cannot as the host.

I am left with the choices of nations that I can click on and while they highlight, none are actually selected for me as my nation to command. When I start the game, I end up having the second computer being in control of their nation, while mine, as the host, is AI and am forced to watch.

For the life of me I cannot figure out how to fix it so my host can select a nation to play instead of watch. Here's what I am doing... After saving our two player game, I have the second player wait at the Join screen where he can see the Server list and Saved games. As the host on my computer I click on Game Server, then on Load Game. I then choose the saved game file for our previous multiplayer game where I was Germany and the other computer was Russia and select Load Scenario.

Now at this point I am at my Server Games Scenario List and can see our saved game here. I have a few options. I can click on the nation flags, they will highlight, but none are actually confirmed as my choice to play. They just highlight. The other three are Options, Start Game and Stop Game. The start game starts the game with all the nations as AI and me not in control of them. I dont know how to select my nation at this point of the load saved multiplayer game. Please help!!!

Meanwhile, the second computer is able to pick their nation and play it. I, as the host, am stuck watching the AI. Please help!!!
