    Hi, for Dawn of War II - Retribtuion, I can play single player but I cannot start any private, public or last stand, it says error occured while starting the game.

    How do I fix this? I can play DOW2 no problem, but retribution is broken

    Try verifying file integrity for the game first.

    If that doesn't work, reinstall the game.

    If that doesn't work, proceed to to unleashing rage or dance with technoviking. He lurks around here sometimes you might catch him.

    now I can't even play last stand, but I can play multiplayer by hosting a game and then just adding AI to it

    That's probably skirmish

    Try reinstalling your Games for Windows Live thingy. Just delete it and have it redownload and reinstall it properly.

    Retribution does not use GFWL.
