I think the game does not allow two instances of the same CD key in a single game. I have had this identical problem trying to play a game against my son at home over our local net (i.e, using a single CD key). It certainly didn't work. We eventually got it to work on the basic game directly out of the package by using a bogus CD key we found on the net. However, they fixed that bogus CD bug in one of the subsequent patches so it will simply not work anymore at all to have multiple CD keys in the same game (other than hot seat mode).

I have been wondering if it was going to work in this game. Now, I am guessing it will not. Most likely, one of you will have to become computer controlled. Or go out and buy a second copy of the game.

Did you attack blind on turn one and lose your initial army already? Naughty boy!!!

Actually, the game looks like a good start to me so far, mainly because I can't see anyone else as yet (lol). But I must admit that I am quite excited just to playing my first on-line game.

Oddly enough my brother's orders seem to have been accepted. I'm figuring that it will work if we both just use my user to take our turns. The only reason I didn't do that in the first place was becaue I wanted him to not need need me to login every time he wanted to take his turn. I would not be as rude as to ask if we could start the game over but I certainly wouldn't complain if we did.

I only ever did that once. Now I never attack before turn 4.

I do not really care about starting over I just thought I would offer to Starwarsluke. I do not think tinkering with my pretender would improve it just change it!

A bit early to tell thogh R'lyeh is not very variable.

Aku:

I encourage you to make a quick executive decision about whether to start over (and I think it would be nice to start over so everyone has a fair start).

Thanks.
