play the world LAN costs
I own CIVIII, and want to buy PTW, but have a quick question. To play at home on my LAN will I need to purchase 2 copie of PTW, or is there a spawn feature (a la Starcraft).

Thanks in advance!

I'm not too sure...but I have 2 copies each of Civ3 and PTW for my LAN play. I believe you need 2 copies, since I haven't noticed a spawn feature in Civ3 or PTW.

I think instead of buying to ptws you buy one install it on both computers and copy the cd on of them, the game usually requires the info on the cd to be somewhere on the computer, to play you would just click autorun where you copied the cd. It worked on me.
