Here is war2kali.exe.  Just copy it to your war2 directory.

or you can just run war2 with the argument war2 pkt:8 This will do
effectively the same thing as war2 kali for people with 28.8 baud
modems.  If you have a slower modem or ISP I think war2 pkt:8 is faster,
and if you have a faster modem I think war2kali is faster, altho I could
have those backwards.

Also try pkt:7. It seems to work better for me.

Hello from the distant future. I am trying to play DOS Warcraft 2 multiplayer, but can't seem to get the required files. Do you still have war2kali.exe?

Have you tried this link?

<http://www.findthatzip-file.com/search-16513302-hZIP/winrar-winzip-download-warcraft2.zip.htm>

I just downloaded it (without testing it), opened the zip file which 
contains lots of warcraft 2 files and it seems legit.

But if you download it I recommend you doing a virusscan on the files no 
matter what.
