1 - Chrome for everything, because it works
2 - Firefox rarely as a backup, like to download youtube videos or something chrome won't let you do.

Chrome for MajorCommand (and everything else), works smoothly.

On Android mobile phone, use Puffin Browser.

I tried all kinds of browsers. The only that worked with your (fantastic) site seems to be Internet Explorer.
Normally I use Firefox.

IE - when I joined it was the only one that seemed to work. My preferred browser is Firefox generally, but I like having a dedicated browser for MC with it as my homepage so I have never looked back.

I use chrome for everything and occasionally have used Internet Explorer (or Edge) only to play MajCom games when (if) Chrome starts glitching. Lately Chrome has worked just fine. Not perfect, but pretty good.

Since the dawn of the Flash restrictions Chrome seems to work best. It will load the maps when I unlock the flash block but often I will have to reload numerous times to get the armies to stay there. I used to use Firefox (my preferred browser) and it works initially on MC but then will crash my computer with a grey screen of death.

I for one am looking forward to the completion of the HTML5 project

New Edge is based on Chromium, so it is comparable with Chrome?

I use whatever happens to be working today...Sometimes my game stops working on a browser like it did on Chrome months ago. Using Edge for MC, Firefox for everything else..
