If the game you bought on eBay is like the two or three others I've read about here, it is pirated software and will not have a serial number which means you won't be able to install any of the patches. If that is the case, you have been ripped off by that eBay seller.

Per the answer below, you only need the lastest patch. Another patch will likely be released this week and perhaps yet another near the end of June that will contain the TCP/IP online play feature.

You will need a Serial Number to install and play the game. did the eBay seller provide this?

ANy patch for GGWAW (1.016, 1.033, and the upcoming 1.040) contains all previous patches. ie. you only need to install the latest available patch to get to the current version.

yeah make sure you get the serial number - you can download the patches without it but you need it to install them
