More Than Nine Single Player Saves.
If you want to keep more than nine saved games, go to your Imperialism II saved games
folder before you start the game and move old saves into a separate folder. Normal saves
are labelled as slotX.imp, where the X represents a number 0-8. The autosave is labelled
slotA.imp, the tutorial save is labelled slotT.imp, and all your multiplayer saved games are
labelled multX.imp. Once you move your old saves out of the Imperialism II saved games
folder they will not appear in the Chest Room and new saves can be placed in those slots.

MPERIALISM
II supports LAN and Internet multiplayer games of up to six players. To create
or join a multiplayer game, click on the battling horsemen statue from the Study
screen. This brings up the Connection screen. Here you may decide to join someone else’s
game by clicking on the statue. If you are playing over a Local Area Network you shouldn’t
need to enter an IP address; I
MPERIALISM
II automatically scans the network for available
games and provides a list for you to choose from. However, if the game you wish to join
does not appear, you can still manually enter the host’s IP address. If you are playing over
the Internet, enter the host’s IP address. The host of the game can find their IP address by
holding the mouse over the ruler portrait in the Multiplayer Lounge. The IP address is
shown in the hot text area. You can also find out your IP address before entering the game
by running the Winipcfg.exe utility. This can be found in your Windows folder. 
To host a game of your own, click on the map to start a new game or the red chest to
