Sometimes the launcher can be laggy. Just click on "doctrine" and then choose a faction and a doctrine (we've got lots of axis account, so if you like choose ally).
After that you click on Finalise and wait for it to say Pending, then click again and it says Approved.
Go to your Battalion Tab and start creating a company. You could already have a look at our Templates and make one according to that and or change it a little bit. Those are just for new players to orientate.
