You need to get the GTK runtime environment and install that, then install crossfire-client, AFAIK GTK isn't bundled with the client yet (don't pay much attention to the windows builds personally). Doubtless one of our windows users will come along and correct me shortly.

crossfire-bigworld is the maps, not needed to play the game, but useful for cheating when you are stuck on a map :)

crossfire-server is the server, unless you want to run your own server, you don't need this.
