'Visual C++ Runtime' is not a 'third party application'.

It is an essential Microsoft runtime to run ANY game on your OS. Without it (or rather 'them' - there are 10+ different versions), NO video game will run.

Usually, the game installs these runtimes on first start, triggered by the Steam installscript.vdf file and the executables are stored these days in:

~\steamapps\common\Steamworks Shared\_CommonRedist\

If you get this "Visual C++ Runtime" error, it means, you are missing the 'right' version on your Windows system (or Mac/Linux Sub-System Emu).

Hey!! I'm using W11 but when I try to start a battle I have that issue. I know that is problem about Microsoft Visual C++. However, the game uses VS 2008 SP1 but it doesn't support in W11.

Hi, for those of you who love the first King Arthur game (King Arthur: The Role-Playing Wargame) as much as I do, I made a short tutorial video about how you can play it on the current systems because it is basically unplayable in default due to unending cycle of crashes. With this solution, it works quite well. I hope it might help you. 😉

This works for me (steam version): https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2681534676
Copy the downloaded files to your King Arthur directory!
