Re: SE IV The End Of An Era.
How so? Combat would still be executed by the computer for MP games... it is not as if the entire game would be real time, or as if the combat would require the players to execute it manually.

Re: SE IV The End Of An Era.
That would not be very productive. I forget their titles, but there have been TBS games that used real time combat in the past that worked out well. BOTF had real time combat, and it worked decently. Too bad the game had no custom ship design.

Re: SE IV The End Of An Era.
The Combat Mission series uses real-time to execute the turns; otherwise it plays like any other turn based game.
Real-time combat in SE5 would change -nothing- for PBW games since the computer runs the combat anyway.
