Is it possible to play the original Red Alert on LAN? I've looked up various ways, although I was never able to figure it out.



Best Answer

Yes, it is possible according to the manual and the hundreds of hours I spent playing it. Note that early Red Alert (and Command & Conquer) games need the IPX-protocol to play multiplayer games, which isn't supported by many current operating systems.
