Is there a way to play this on multiplayer on Windows XP? Me and one of my friends really enjoy playing Warcraft III online and want to see what multiplayer Warcraft was like back in the old days.

Not sure 'bout that, but maybe Hamachi can do it.

It's able to emulate a LAN over internet connection.

dosbox supports online play tho its a peer to peer system which means everyone with a router needs to forward ports.

Actually, from what I understand(tested this thing out... repeatedly) it only works with a complete game(no rips, must be original/clone/whatever)

Also, you'll need to play it on DOSBox.

And, IIRC the same thing goes for Warcraft II! Happy
