yes i am.. Very few people. Maybe like i saw one room with 8 people and 2 other room with only 1-3 people.

And unfortunately i have windows 10 now and Army men rts would stop working from time to time and show up black screen, and there seem to be no solution to this after doing some research. So looks like there is no coming back to RTS :(

Yeah the availability for multiplayer will be a hit and miss thing for a game this old (and not too popular). For the Windows 10, I use to have that issue before too a while back. When I re-installed Windows for whatever reason, the issue was fixed and I didn't even notice it. Mine works without doing anything to it but have you played around with the compatibility modes?

Yup tried every compatibility mode
reinstall, deleting setting.cfg, different installation of amrts, etc.

Well it was nice playing for a few games, since its not working anymore ill be entering back to retire mode again lol.
