Hi guys,

Thanks for the responses.
To Suicide-junkie: Yes I would love to have serial tactical combat included, but I figured that would be WAY to much to ask for now. And the PBM site is OK but not much of an improvement to me. I still have to wait much longer than with a direct connect it still depends on the e-mail response time which can be real slow.
To yojimbo: I agree completely. Tactical combat is really essential for a complete feel to the game.
To possum and Gera (good to see ya here, bud): it is indeed a sore point with me to.
And finally to Will: Uh, as I am new to this forum, do you work for MM. If so, I think Aaron can speak for himself and doesn't need a "bodyguard". I realize the amount of effort that is needed to keep a game like this going but the IP connection issue is not difficult. There are many tools out there now to do the trick with minimal additional programing. I appreciate your input but the original question stands (unanswered): What is a rough time frame for adding an IP connection? And from the sounds of others, I think drones are way down the list of priorities.
