Depends on the Game.
Maybe the kali frontend for these games will work with the kali proxy for
linux, to allow them to act as servers. that would then allow arbitrary
connections.
If the game supports socks5 proxy, that might work.
The alternative is some sort of port forwarding from firewall to the game
server.
What you have to do is find out the ports for that game, which you can do
with a port scanner, or a traffic sniffer (but first you need valid
traffic), or as you say , get the details from somewhere.
like google ... battlenet ports .. and here is what I found at
http://www.opentechsupport.net/forum...c/15363-1.html
" All this applies to Starcraft, Brood War, Warcraft II: Battle.net edition,
Warcraft III, Diablo 2, and Diablo 2: Lord of Destruction.
Furthermore, if you intend to host game from behind the router you will need
to enable port forwarding of port 6112 to one machine, and 6113 to the other
machine. If you are playing Warcraft 3, you'll also need to set the port is
uses to the same port you have forwarded to the machine. "
