Every battle you've fought in World of Battles is saved automatically as a replay in Frogwares\World of Battles\data\custom\replays\auto folder with .wrb extension.
You can change the name of the replay file by pressing “Custom replay name…” button on a result screen after battle. To separate replays, new folders can be created in Frogwares\World of Battles\data\custom\replays folder. With your Replay viewer you will see all your replays in all folders there.
How to browse replays?
To view replays you need to launch ReplayViewer.exe in Frogwares\World of Battles\release folder. It will open a Replay Viewer window:
Replay Viewer window contains three sections:
Browse section, where you can select a replay to view and browse through replay folders. Button “Browse…” in this section will open replays folder in common Windows Explorer window.

How to create your own Banner and share it while you fight.
Select any image that you want to use as your army banner in online wargame World of Battles. Edit it in any image editor (Paint brush or http://pixlr.com/editor/) and resize it to 256x256 pixels, then save it. Convert it to *.DDS extension (DXT5 pixel format) using any image convertor from this list.

Copy the final picture (size 256x256 pixels, .DDS extension with DXT5 pixel format) to the import folder where you installed the game (Default is C:\Program Files\Frogwares\World of Battles\data\import\). If you don’t know where this is, go to the next step. Load World of Battles and in the Army Selection\Creation screen: Click on “Import Banner” if you are creating a new army, or “Change Banner” below your current banner if you have already created an army. Click on “browse” if you didn’t copy your new banner in the local folder or Select the banner you want with the next and previous arrows and then click on “Import.”
Have Fun with your newly customized banner. During the battle the banner will automatically be exchanged with all your opponents thanks to our banner exchange system so they’ll see your banner and you’ll see theirs (if you want to find one of them they’ll be located by default in C:\Program Files\Frogwares\World of Battles\ data\custom\emblems).
