The same goes for Dark Crusade, not necessary to load all previous versions unless going online. I'll have to do a test to see if offline single skirmish games are exempt as well

I have had no problems doing the skirmish games as any army on either Dark Crusade or Soulstorm, either installing from CD or on Steam. I don't know how Steam handles the online play since I literally haven't done online games since I got the Steam versions.
