Not a problem. this is one of 4 general (no pun intended, lower case , not
Generals) C&C Newsgroups. any one of the games can be discussed here. it was
created for the original C&C Tiberium Dawn, but has evolved to accept all,
even if a separate newsgroup is created (I know of none for Generals).

anyway, about online playing.  I hesitate to say go for it since there are
many creeps, losers, and downright  idiots online who have nothing better to
do than annoy people. i gave it up years ago.

BUT, what i do is i have a couple of good friends who we meet and play as
allies against the computer. very similar to what you experience in
skirmish, but more funs since you now have friends who stand by you,
"shoulder to shoulder and backs to the wall" ("F Troop").  i also have Roger
Wilco to have actual verbal communications with my allies, rather than the
keyboard (i cannot type).

this i have been doing for years, and it never gets old.

BTW, i am computer illiterate, and cannot answer your other questions.  I do
also "try before you buy".

oh, and i dont own Generals.  my pc isn't strong enough to run it.  i play
Tiberium Sun.  Was lousy on single missions, but great with skirmish and
online playing.
