Duh, I assumed savefiles from US and UK versions are fully compatible, the versioning is in terran.exe.
Correct?

as far as i know, US/UK combos are ok. As long as everyone is using v3.0, should not be a problem.

I once asked that question in the Game forum, and JKM replied that different country versions would not affect the game. Even a mix of US/UK/DE/FR would be fine, as long as the same version of the patch - err, I mean Enhancement (sorry about that ) - is used.

US/3.0 or UK/3.0 will not work with a German 2.0 player in MP, okay. Does anybody know whether PBEM is also affected? Ye bastards at EA! Get the DE patch out already!

To the best of my knowledge, at least in the UK version, PBEM is actually a function of Patch 3. Before I installed Patch 3, my game simply didn't have the "Hotseat/PBEM" option listed at all under Multiplayer.

PBEM/Hot Seat showed up patch 2.0 USA for me.
