Hi all, just thought I'd let you know about a new multiplayer network I've created for playing Civilization III (Conquests and Play the World) online called GameRanger.
Basically, GameRanger makes it quick and easy to play your friends online.
It has full lobby support for over 500 different games and demos (including Civ III, of course), without the hassles and headaches that usually happen with network connections (eg. routers & firewalls).
I'm really excited to be releasing it, and hope it helps boost the Civ III community by allowing people to play that were unable to until now due to problems with opening ports, etc. The more barriers that can be removed, the more likely the community will stay strong, as new users won't be put off.
You can download it at www.GameRanger.com
Btw, you may be familiar with GameRanger already as the Mac online gaming service. The difference is that PC gaming is supported now as well.
