Hi there,
I spent some time writing some POL script to install ShadowGrounds. The bad news is that no matter what version of Wine I tried (being recent, stable or old, including versions "known to work" according to WineHQ's AppDB), there has always been some probability (1:10 maybe?) to crash the game when displaying the map/objectives 2D panel (Tab key by default). It should be possible to complete the game by only using this panel when strictly necessary, though.
I also discovered that Linuxgamepublishing has made a Linux port of the game, and at least the demo doesn't suffer from this problem (on the other hand graphics are a little less polished, and the game comes with DRM). So it's up to you.
Enjoy!
