This patch updates Sudden Strike to Version 1.2. It includes 
numerous changes:

Version 1.2:
-	The incompatibiltys concerning the CD-ROM/DVD-Drive NEC DV 5700A were fixed.

Version 1.1:
-	GameSpy support (see below). With this it is possible to start 
multiplayer battles comfortably via the internet.
-	Selective unloading of troops from trucks. When a truck is 
selected the units inside it are displayed in the upper left of the 
screen. You can now unload specific units by clicking on their 
symbol.
-	Placing mines. This was simplified. Now you have to select a 
soldier carrying a mine. Then you choose "lay mine" and right click 
where you want him to place the mine.
-	Repairing bridges. This too has been simplified. Select a supply 
truck. Select "repair bridge" and then right-click on the bridge.
