The Command interface seams suitable for touch control, zooming in and out, unit selection, text input, etc. could allow playing on a tablet without exterior keyboard or mouse requirement if the simulation were touch ready.

I understaand that it is still pretty early to ask for this implementation, but with the new Surface tablet, and I believe other full Windows based Tablets that are coming out, (I have just purchased one mainly to be able to play Command) making the simulation touch/tablet ready would allow a whole new different gaming possibility.

I think it would be pretty cool to be able to play Command on a powerful tablet, pinching and zooming and micromanaging with a stylus without the necessity of any other input device, anywhere, anytime!

Yeah Dama, but it seems you would either have eyes like an eagle or you'd be busier than a one legged man in an ass kicking contest trying to constantly pinch and squeeze (zoom in and out) to see everything that's going on with just a 10" screen. I do play on my laptop but it sounds almost impossible to consider on a Tablet unless their is a significant amount of screen size.

Could be. I am hoping good graphics and an efficient zoom and drag system could reduce the mentioned inconveniences. Of course the size of the screen is important but it would be a different way of playing and who knows, it might also have some advantages to the classic pc-mouse style.
