Counter-Strike 1.6 server hosting, done right

Counter-Strike 1.6 is the timeless GoldSrc shooter that defined competitive FPS. A dedicated HLDS server with AMX Mod X is light to run and endlessly customisable for classic pub and clan play.

We recommend around 512 MB–1 GB of RAM, scaling with players and mods. Plans scale to 12–32 slots.
