Would anyone be interested in some multi-player network games of C&C:Red Alert?

If so drop a note in here, I think some set-up would be needed for the networking, but I'd test it first. Even though the game is widely available for download on the net, I'm sure westwood would still sell you a licence if you asked nicely.

I've got C&C: The First Decade, so I've got all the early editions. Only problem is that some of the older ones are a bit of a struggle to get working on a new machine. I could have a look and see if it still works, though. Never played C&C as a multi-player.

Quite limited in the times I'll be able to play, too.

The one I have is an old copy - I have run it for network games, but there will be fiddling to get the older ones to go over the net. If we have enough takers I'll work on it - I'm thinking we'd need a VPN to handle IPX/SPX over 't net; I have a box in the cloud so this should be doable.

But what is it?
