I wonder if TCP/IP support will be stable enough to leave the client/host running for days(assuming you have a DSL or cable connection). If one can play like that, it's pretty much the same as PBW but with less hassle. You come to your computer, you see a new turn, you submit your orders -- the rest is taken care of by the game. No manual uploads/downloads. If the TCP/IP support can do that for me, I'll be quite happy about it
