Unread post Where to host?
Thinking of spinning up a small server out "in the cloud" for my own personal use when on the road (and maybe an actual public game or three).

To all the sysops/admins out there - where do you host your games? Any recommendations for TWGS-friendly hosting providers?

I've used a couple. You need to decide what your pocket book can afford: Dedicated Server, or Virtual. I have no idea what your nerd-o'meter reads.. probably higher than mine, that said just make sure you have enough horse power and RAM (minimum 2 CPU's, GB's of RAM).

Last company I used was pretty decent: US Dedicated (https://usdedicated.com/) ...if you go the VPS route, your Server will be available as soon as payment is received.

V1 will run on 2 GB. with V2 you'll want at least 4gb pf ram. there are 1000s of windows vps out there. some better then others..
