I said 10% netplay and PBEM before but I dont think that I will play netplay at all.
 
so my revised "vote" will be:
 
PBEM 10%
AI 90%

Solitaire - 0% (I can do that now with CWiF.)

Head-to-head (Hotseat) - 15%

AI Opponent - 65%

NetPlay - 5%

PBEM - 15%

To begin with I will be playing exclusively against the AI to learn all the new rules as I played the game with version 4 rules and no expansions. It will only be later that I will try other opponents.

I suppose I may be a little overly optimistic about how smooth and fun netplay will work since it hasn't been demonstrated much so far. PBEM could win me over, though I will reserve judgment until I've played it. Provided my opponent has some reliability(I'm willing to wait a couple days for a turn -sometimes)I'd rather play against a human layer. I compare it to watching a movie. I usually like to share the experience, though I can understand the value of playing alone.

AI: 50%
PBEM: 50%

If I can find plenty of opponents, the PBEM should increase to as much as 90% after a year or so.

IMO the ideal way to play would be Netplay at the beginning of the turn up to when Ground Strikes are done then PBEM the move and Netplay again for combat resolution and transition to the next impulse.

I find from FTF games, there is not a lot to do while the opponents are making all their moves, but now with MWIF there'd be no chess clock, no pressure to finish etc. - which I find preferrable. Of course two player is the extreme example of this.

We've even had another game (like Russian Campaign) set-up off to the side, for the non-moving player to spend his time on. But heck, now with MWIF you can have two MWIF games going at once! ...space - the final frontier... will have been conquered.
