I think playability will dictate otherwise. Not sure I am remembering the correct word, but "grognard" comes to mind. I think the days of "grognard" have passed. These days, due (usually) to the youth which, to a large extent, dictate gaming trends, there is more of a tendancy to make fast-moving games. And while 4X strategy games don't generally (IMO) appeal to today's youth, by the very nature of being a 4 game, one expects some kind of "grognard-ness" (if that's a word... ) but not TOO much.

I dissagree. I feel this game grew in popularity because of that "grognard" aspect. Some thing about being able to take your time to plan your strategy is what makes this game great. The market is already flooded with Starcraft/AoM knock offs. I don't think we need another. I do feel there needs to be more added to the ground combat.
