 ===== Windows Crossfire Server Installation Guide =====
+**WARNING: this page lets you install a very old (from 2013) version of the server. It may work, but will definitely be out-of-date. Windows server support is currently not functional...** (precisely, Python plugin will not work, meaning guilds, many quests and things like that will not work)
+**CONTINUE AT YOUR OWN RISK!**
 This page has been updated for instructions on installing the server on Windows 10.

 . To launch the server, click on Start and scroll until you see Crossfire Server and then click on Install as a Windows service
