From what I can tell about the TPM 2008 posts, it seems like this game used to have a LAN function. Where did it go? Is it buried in the code and needing to be activated? Is it just no longer supported? How can I set up the game to play online since I cannot see any servers at all?

None yet, trying to find a fix to the same problem myself. Seems like no one knows right now.
Just in case anyone else is having similar problems, I've found out that it isn't just the Steam version that does this - my hard copy of the game has the exact same problems.
So, this time, it reacted completely differently. Tried to launch the game and the process launched, and Steam recognized it as running, but nothing came up at all. No application, nothing.

Okay... The game launched properly this time. Problem #1 addressed. This time the game crashes when I try to open the popup to see what Super Diplomacy is.

AH! Got the thing to load. While I have it up, this is what I've gotten. My original issue is that the game will crash immediately upon skipping the intro: Debug Message: Version v2.04 Twilight of the Arnor last updated on: Tue Nov 1 11:59:59 2011 Debug Message: Checking DX Version.

So I have a multitude of other people's problems all occuring at once... When I first installed the game, the game wouldn't launch at all. Steam would mark it as running, and the thread would be created in my task manager, but nothing would appear on the screen. Then, intermittently - it goes to a black screen on some launches. When it does that, I have fixed it using the "black screen" fix on the forum. However, now it crashes any time I try to skip the intro. The one time I did get
