I just use SP mode to check if the pretender is working. (as if you begun to play MP the AI just bores you)

I play almost solely SP due to time restraints, though I have played a few MP games. I usually win vs. the AI, but the games can still be interesting.

Hmm, has anyone here played hotseat ? Dom-ppp was actually developed with me and JK and at times JO or Serra sitting in a room and play on just one comp. More fun than SP, but you need a TV or some other distraction while waiting.

I play hotseat MP more than PBeM and IP combined. I play with a friend of mine whenever I can. Best way to play!

I think it would be even more fun if you got 3+ players at hotseat. I can just imagine how complicated the treaties could get!

I use the hotseat mode to test stuff.

I play mostly SP, because I suck so badly against every other player. I like uniformal things so my armies are running back and forth of betveen forts and frontline to recruit that three or four soldiers that were killed by some accidental friendly fire.

Maybe my habits make me bad MP player...

I usually play MP hotseat games sometimes with AI included. As far as something else to do while waiting well I recommend playing other great TBS games at the same time on other computers. TBS games such as Heroes_3 Complete, AgeofWonders_2:ShadowMagic, and Dominions_3. I've rotated between as many as four different computers.

Also Space Empires IV and Stars! For some they would consider GalCiv2 also

Ahh. GalCiv2. What an awesome game. Too bad it is only SP. Still, I play it almost exclusively when I'm not playing Dom3.
