Hello, I'm trying to get the CTRL+ # keys to assign groups in Warcraft II.
For some reason it doesn't register the key press for the combination.
Both the CTRL and # keys (1,2,3,4...) all work on their own, just not when their pressed together.

I'm using DosBox 0.73 on Windows 7. Warcraft II has been patched to the latest version (1.40 for Tides of Darkness).

Has anyone else had a similar problem?
Can I add entries for key combinations to DosBox's keymapper file, or do I need to go into the source and add them?

Are you sure the DOS version is capable of that? It's not mentioned in the keyboard shortcuts of the game (at least in v1.3).

1+1=10

You could be right, it might not be supported. I no longer have the manual, I was checking out the controls from a website.

Looked it up. Looks like it was only available in the Battle.net edition.
