Hi all

First: Congratz on the new contract!

Second: does anyone here have experience with multiplayer? I never tried it in Bulge. I have a friend coming over on saturday and am ocnsidering buying a second copy of Bulge to introduce him to this game on a LAN. But it's vital that it works without hitches as I don't want to waste Saturday afternoon troubleshooting it

No comments from anyone? I guess I'll just have to try my luck [:)]

Sorry I have not tried multi-player yet. I'm sure some of the more knowledgeable guys here will know more later and help.

I have played multiplayer -it's really awesome and one of the best gaming experiences I ever had. Just like playing other real time games, multiplayer is a whole new ballgame.

It works very well in my experience.  The only hiccups I've encountered:
 
* Airstrikes sometimes take a while to "take".  I wind up clicking multiple times to make sure they go through.
 
* A Surrender offer takes a while to percolate through the system, and may require that time is still running to go through; and the other player needs to keep an eye on the lower right corner of the screen to see the Surrender button change to Accept Surrender.

Excellent news. We'll give it a go then. I thought I'd come up with something a little different than Arma2
