Okay, I was really curious about this game online, so I did this:
Clicked multiplayer via gamespy. Waited 10 minutes. NOTHING CAME UP!!! What gives, because this is to me one of the best WW2 simulators on the market and has great online potential.

Could be that the servers are no longer operational???
You do know you can use Hamachi and set up a game with people from the GOG community, right?

Oh wise Judas, please explain to this young warped mind what the hell Hamachi is.

Sarcasm or a serious question?
Hamachi is a program that creates a LAN-like environment over the net.

Ah! *Bows in samurai fashion*. So, I can just install this and load up Soldiers, choose multiplayer, and connect against others? How does this thing work exactly.

Well here is what you do:
Start Hamachi and follow the onscreen instructions it gives you via the tutorial.
Have the other person connect to your comp via Hamachi
THEN load up Soldiers
Select the option for LAN or multiplayer. LAN should work.
And you should be able to play against, or with, the person connected via Hamachi

Wouldn't that give them access to your computer? I mean, I am very anal when it comes to my computer safety.

Even before installing Hamachi you get the choice to turn off File Sharing and any other Windows vulnerabilities. Also, I played with some GOGers here using Hamachi and my comp is no worse for wear nor has anything been compromised.

So, if I install this software, I could see how good you are at this game? Because I think it would be interesting to see the outcome and learn each other's strategies.

I don't have the game sorry. But I figured Hamachi might help with your problem.

Hi their! I have Hamachi now. Now to test it out...
Edit: Okay, I can only play this game online with Gamespy Arcade, LAN, and All-seeing eye. No Hamachi option...is this option in Sacred Gold or the Guild Gold because I'm lost...
