Sorry if im asking a very basic question but I just want to be sure.

This weekend I plan to make a B&W lan game with my cousin.
I just wanted to know if any programs are involved in making the lan work.
I just dont want to not have it not work while we have no internet connection.
 
You should be alright. BW1 does have a LAN mode.
 
You should both be patched  to V1.2  and maybe  agreeing the "Win" conditions in advance  will get your  game  off to  a smooth start.
Perhapse  Most belief in 1 hour  could  be a fun thing to do. Better than  a fight to the death  that may take  several  hours  that will leave one of you  upset and not wanting to play  again.
I have  been there  with friends and relations  start with short  games that are not too vicious  and build up from there as you both gain experience.
You  don't get  that angry  when your cousin ....say collects  40,000 wood  to his  stores  before you do, to win,  your first MP  but if he kills you after several hours  you may not want to  play again.
.
When the game was new  the number of  "noobs" that played on the servers  just once seemed  like  90+%......They generally got a kicking  and never came back..... So  keep it friendly  at first. :;):
 
Thanks for that advice Gremxula.

That does sound like a good idea.
My cousin hasnt even played yet,so I think a handful of short games to get him into it would be best.
Im sure its not all that fun to play games that last that long anyway >_> at least not at first.

I'll be sure to download the patch to.  :yes
