I guess that I could just wait for the lobby to be upgraded :...:
Unless you have 2 different external (WAN) IPs, then, it isn't going to happen any time soon.
You could run a lobby server on your own machine, and *then* everyone on the LAN can find you...
That's what we tried to do. :|

What did you try to do? Run the lobby server code on your machine?

If that is the case, then you need to modify the config file, to point to your machine, instead of lobby.wz2100.net...

And all the clients need to do the same thing as well.

The other option* is, you can do warzone2100.exe --host and they can do warzone2100.exe --join 192.168.xxx.xxx (whatever your LAN IP is) and join that way.

*Assuming you are running trunk, or 2.1 branch. I don't think that is in beta 4.

Just click on "Join Game" inside the Game, choose "Lobby" (depends on your used Version) and you are in the Lobby.
With a "better Lobby", Army Unit means a Lobby, that does show more than only opened Games - which is everything our current one does :(
