GAME: Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds

using: laptop with NO built-in cd-rom drive
type: Lenova ideapad Y700-17ISK Signature Edition
with: MS-Win10
and: DOSBox v0.74

A quick couple of questions...

1) has anyone been successful getting the above-named game working with DOSBox (or other DOS-based emulator)?

2) more specifically, gotten the game to work with the NETWORKING option allowing two to eight individuals to play together?

Galactic Battlegrounds is a (relatively new) Windows game. Run it in Windows.

I have tried using numerous versions of MS-Windows (after Win98) and the networking option simply will not work.

I now understand that DOSBox is not the answer, either. Thanks for the reply, though.

Nor is any other Dos emulator what you are looking for...
