Whenever I play there's anywhere from 3 to 15 games. Check what location you have steam set to. Try changing it to a more popular server location

Ok im new to steam lol.. how do i do this.. i live in new zealand so maby not 2many ppl here playn.

Also i dont own any of the mini expansions

Go to the main steam page then click Settings at the bottom. Then Downloads, set your download region to United Kingdom. You aren't getting games because you would probably be set to NZ or Aus in which most of these players are already switched to UK

Ok no i can see the game. Thanks!

Now when i try to join it says "failed to join: no response from host"

Hello. I also live in New Zealand

Unfortunately alot of people suffer from the failed to join errors, including myself. Apparently It's caused by having a certain type of router/ isp

Some things that increase the chance of joining a game:
-Host a game
-Be invited into a game from the host on your friends list
-Host a game and invite a friend
-If those don't work programs like Hamachi should always let you connect to the person who connects to your network and vice versa

However yesterday all of these things didn't help me for some reason which made me miss out on playing a Maratha vs Maratha battle

(My opponent on Hamachi had a error icon next to his name, a VPN , network adapter error so I don't know exactly what caused this :S but I did manage to join someone elses network before that and play him.)
