Network play
You can play iConquer against your friends over a network. Up to six people anywhere in the world can play together. Everyone sees the same map on their screen.

No speed limit
iConquer 2 features a new network architecture that has been rewritten from scratch. Network game play is now nearly as fast as non-network play. There's even a preference to further optimize the game for slow internet connections.
