well....you have 2 options

1)live online play. you usually would contact someone with an instant messenger and arrange a time to play, then you both join on one of your ips

i prefer these, i like controlling my own opfire, though the fact that you need to find a chunck of time to play can sometimes be hard (games can be saved and resumed however - i do recommend saving on a regular basis, sometimes isps can drop you, or the game can crash) roger wilco makes these games rather enjoyable as well

2)pbem- playing games by email is nice and convienient (and from what i see, more popular). one player creates a pbem game according to the conditions that both agree on (pts, arty rules, mines, air sections, time, team, etc) and zips the 4 email files and sends them to the other player who plays his/her turn and zips the files and sends them back...repeat. the nice thing about these is that you can have several games going at once, and still hold down a job :)

id be interested in a game (probably pbem) if your interested, and you can also find several opponents in the spwaw opponents wanted part of the forum

send me a pm or email - [email]hcnup@hotmail.com[/email], and we can get a good battle going!

hope this helped,

jedimessiah
