Re: OT: Lo and Behold! Ancient Empire has reborn...
I would love to have a game with you. Though, I haven't bought this game yet. Furthermore, I wonder how the Internet play succeeds through Home PNA connection. I don't have static IP and I am behind a NAT which effectively prevents playing many games connecting through static IP.
Though I am thinking to have this game. One of my friends is going to have it too.

You do not need a static IP to play games on the internet.

Yes, most game do not require it, though NAT presents problems for many games. I would hate to buy a game which would not work properly.

Port forwarding usually solves NAT related problems.
