Well, I think I waited long enough. I posted a poll over at the WiF discussion group back on May 15...its been 10 days now and have gotten 31 responses. The poll is a bit limiting since it is not possible to answer with percentages, only one answer allowed. The WiF discussion list is made up mostly of long-time WiF'ers and basically Grognards who also play many other wargames. The results with 31 responses:
NetPlay=13 votes(42%)
PBEM=5 votes(16%)
HotSeat=0 votes(0%)
AI=10 votes(32%)
Solitaire=3 votes(10%)

After that "tutorial":
Netplay: 70%
PBEM: 30%

Months ?
It already takes months to play the face to face game.
PBEM will need years.

Not necessarily. It would be quite possilbe to send several emails a day for simple stuff. With a little dedication, the two players could complete one or two turns a week - which is about the same as for over-the-board, if I am not mistaken.

Sorry, I was joking, I have no idea of how long PBEM games can take.
I only know about our home games, that have a duration of about 150 hours for playing the 36 turns game, with an average total of 250 impulses played.
