B. Starting Age of Empires II

You DO-NOT have to have the Age of Empires II CD in your CD-ROM drive to
play Age of Empires II.

You can only connect to players using the same version thus playing players
using 1.0c will not work they have to have 1.0e. (note- 1.0c players will more than
likely have hacks.)
