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."

Which means there's no difference between the two systems. I was really thinking about tactical-style PBEM, which is irrelevent to SE4..

"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."

Defeats the purpose of being pauseable in the first place.
