These are a set of .WAV sound files that can be used for silent scenario introdutions with animation. They contain no sounds but have timing marks which can be used to have events happen after a certain amount of time has passed. They would be renamed to U00.wav, c00.wav etc and be placed in the Sounds folder where the program will use them with priority over the same named files on the CD. The .gif pictures show where the time marks are in the file. The 1st and last time marks may not work. There are some anomalies in the way the Union portrait swapping works for some scenario numbers - portrats are swapped without any instruction to do so in some cases and this may be confusing. The .sfk files are files used by Sound Forge. These are included in case you wish to use Sound Forge to edit the .wav files. Graeme
