Commandos like games with online multiplayer?

Commandos, damn, that brings back some (frustrated) memories.
So you're asking for a squad-based, real-time tactics game focused around stealth with multiplayer co-op. That's a preeeeetty tall order. Though honestly, it surprised me that when I thought about it I couldn't think up a single game.
The closest I can think of is Frozen Synapse, but that has a competitive multiplayer component and is turn-based instead of real-time.

I know, it is kind of much to ask for, but who knows, maybe there's some game out there I've missed?Cowabungaa said:
Alright, lets try to make it at least a little bit easier. How about any genre and not having to be squad based but still stealth multiplayer co-op? At least 3 but preferable 4 player co-op.
We've played some Frozen Synapse but meh, it was good and all but not fast enough. Thanks though!
There's Soldiers: Heroes of WWII and maybe Men of War, although I haven't played the latter, so I'm not sure about that. I think it's similar.
Soldiers has a top down/isometric perspective and you control mutiple units. It looks a little like an RTS, but plays more like an action game (trying to play the game like an RTS will just get you killed). You can control the units like in an RTS, or thake direct control of them. You can do some stealth too.
The campaings can be played co-op (Russian, British, American and German campaings), and there's also some vs. multiplayer modes.
I think that's the closest to what you're looking for that I can think of.

It requires windows 9X or Me? I've never even heard of those operating systems. Well I can't play this most likely, not with 7 64 bit. I don't buy old games off steam, they rarely work with more avdanced hardware.
Well 4 player idk, but Sniper Elite has 2 player coop, and some of the Rainbow Six games do too. You could try those. If you wanna go more old school though, Fallout Tactics has squad based combat, and some sort of online component, but I have no idea what it is or how it works.
