MP Newbie needs a hand Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

Hello everybody.

I finally managed to fix my computer for internet access.

What do I need to do to try a MP game? Do I need to set up an ICQ account?

I've played a fair amount of SP but I am a complete MP rookie.

Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations: Deluxe Edition

Make sure you download the lastest patch.

YEs, an icq account will help.

Then just post here and you'll find a game.

And yes, I've paid for all of them. The only one still used is civII.,
