I've received my copy of SB Gold from justplay.com today - haven't got the time
to try it out yet but am looking forward to trying it out (and the mission editor) soon!
Thanks very much for helping me find a place to buy this sim from (have been looking in shops for
ages with no success)

However I'm not sure which (if any) patches I need to apply. There are several patches available.
The only one listed for the "Gold" version is the map file fix which simply removes an error message
in the mission editor (I noticed this same message in the demo version editor)

The version number given for the tanksim.exe file is 1.2.2.6.

That's still correct. SB Gold is the most advanced version of SB1, and the only patch/update there ever was for it is the missing map patch. If you don't mind clicking "Ok" every time you start the mission editor, you don't even need the missing map patch.

The only other stuff you might want to download is maps (look for the AllTheMaps packages, 5 .zip files) and any scenarios which strike your fancy. In particular, there is a series of scenarios called Tactics 101 which can be helpful if you're a real novice at land combat. Taking those scenarios apart in the mission editor to see how they work is helpful, too.

Good luck with it - please give me a shout if you run into any problems. \:\)

Drawde , you 're good to go .

The 1.226 is the latest version . Don 't bother about the error message when loading the Editor , just click OK .

What you can do is browse your Gold CD and copy-paste all maps from it to your Maps folder , as not all maps are transferred during installation .
