Default Re: OT) Best Turn Based Game: Fantasy or Space or War

PBEM uses strategic combat, so there is no concern about both players having to be there for combat; it is run by the AI.

Quote:
since you don't have the other player pausing and unpausing combat all the time.
That is why you have a configurable limit on the number of pauses per combat (including a no limit option as default, of course). The game could easily be set up to function in either method. All it needs is a few toggleable options.
