    well......it has to change a file when u complete it so i guess if you changed a file it would be possible.

    In the Preferences file, change FIRST_TIME_PLAY:TRUE into FIRST_TIME_PLAY:FALSE.

    When I start the first battle, I just hit "ESC" go to "Quit" and when I go back to the Prologue campaign, I hit "ESC" again, go to "Quit", go back to the Main menu, and I can play Campaign. Simple.

    That feature should only work if you have an original 1.0 Disk

    First time play true, means that this is the first time you are playing it, thus you have to do the prologue. You have to do first time play false, which means that this isn't your first time playing RTW, thus allowing you to avoid the prologue.
