How do 2 player combat each other from thier own comuters


  • Hello,

    Hopefully you can help with this question. A friend and myself have been recently playing A&A and we both really enjoy the challenges of the game. We both have copies of the CD-ROM game. We currently always play at his house. We would like to be able to play against eac other, with each player at his own home.

    How do we do this???

    Both computers have modems, he has access the MSN - I use Omega communications for my internet provider.

    Can one player dial the other playes phone number (modem) so that both can play? How is this done?

    Do we have to both connect to some internet site that would host the game for us?

    I heard somewhere that it also possible to ‘chat’ while playing - such as between turns or rounds. Is this possible??

    Thanks for you help
    Athur


  • If you both have the same version of the game, you can play on the zone

    The game is set up for a direct connection, but I recall not being able to host for some reason; maybe it’ll work for you though.

    You can chat while you play, I just dont remember how. Probably the enter key, or something similar.

    Good luck!
