What if this were ONLY PBEM?

Sorry if I wasted anyone's time. I am about to acquire the license to a major book. And these questions all were designed to tell me what people who feel strongly about a subject would think if certain things happen. I do know some of the questions, on their face, and not in this context, seem very odd. But your answers did help my team discuss the road ahead of us. So thanks!

And I will be buying Empires in Arms! Hope to play with some people in here some day!

For your sake, I hope the book isn't James Frey's "A Million Little Pieces." Turns out that story was a hoax. If that's the book, this is what you get for not watching "Oprah."

Hey there. I am just wondering about how many people would play this Napoleonic game if it was ONLY play by email. That is, you could not play against the AI. Only against a player by email. I am just curious.

Please note... "Empires in Arms" is NOT only play by email. It does have everything. I am just wondering what if it were only play by email. How many would still have to have this? I am sure after the wait, we will all be rewarded with an excellent game system, including great AI.

However...

QUESTION 1: That is... would you buy a game like this (something you really wanted) without AI, yes or no?

QUESTION 2: And what if it cost half as much without AI? Would you buy in this case, and would this change your decision? Yes or no?

QUESTION 3: Now, what if you had to email your turn to another location where the AI was processed and a file were returned to you? Thoughts?

QUESTION 4: What if Matrix were the only game company allowed to make "Empires in Arms", and you knew you would never be able to play Empires in Arms in any other way than PBEM? Thoughts?

Yes. This is market research. But not by Matrix. And it has nothing to do with "Empires in Arms" or even Napoleonics.

I think this is a stupid post not worth answering.

But you did[8D]
