As an example if I want to play Romania with 2 other steam friends as Italy and Germany is that coming ? I guess my question is this game staying 2 sided or is multi polar turn based real time in the works ?

I could see Majors being turn based but Minors? I think Romania has 5-6 Units, wouldn't that be a bad idea and take too much time up? An Average PBEM turn is about 15-20 minutes if you Micro-Analyze but as far as fun and giving people Majors and playing a very long game. Like a Month long I could see that.

I'd rather see Strategic Command Global and giving the US and Japan a role along with the British Empire incorporated. Much like Axis and Allies did but that would be so big and so ambitious I don't know if that will ever be done!

I could be wrong but I don't see that happening. This isn't Europa Universalis.

True, Hexagon wargaming just isn't as popular as RTS. Although if the Devs knew it would sell like pancakes at the IHOP they would do it?

SC2 did do a Pac Campaign. Of course combining the two would probably be a World in Flames nightmare, can you imagine the time needed to do that? With this engine shortened still...

Game is excellent just the way it is, but a true multi polar experience like a paradox game would make it amazing. Just my thoughts but as it stands its excellent and full worth my dollars spent.
