Re: Classic turn-based ?
Im a champion at fudging "something like" for features that people want, and I enjoyed considering this one. But Im afraid that I didnt come up with much.
The closest I could get would be
A) start game with 3 players
B) host game with player 1's turn file
C) host game with player 2's turn file
D) host game with player 3's turn file
The problem is that during (B) the game will still process files for 2 and 3 but declare them to be stale. So instead of turn-based you just get each player taking a turn every third hosting. It might be interesting, but not quite what the requestor wants.
I do like both simultaneous and turn based. But I wouldnt want Dominions to try too hard to be turn based. There are advantages to the pbem style and its a type of gaming which is far more in need of decent games than other styles. I wouldnt want to lose that for any kindof features.
