Of course it is silly!

I think even the demo will let you do that!

and what about TCP/IP multiplayer games ?? is it possible ?? how ??

TCP/IP is not possible (or at least not implemented) because of the turn based nature of the game. There was a long thread about it a few weeks ago. Try searching the orum for it.

I don't see any reason why TCP/IP end turn based games are not compatible !?
Many of Turn based ar OK in direct IP [civilization as an obvious exemple, but also panzer general, steel panthers, Imperialism, etc etc the list is long.]

so ?

A TCP/IP implementation is on the pile of things to add in the future, it just hasn't been coded yet. Some people are working on Web-based play, and others on better PBEM support, but I haven't paid much attention to their progress. Try searching the Boards for the "Play-By-Web" and "PBEM Helper" threads.
