Hi, You don't have to finish a game in one session. In TCP/IP all players enter orders at same time. So it does not take any longer online then it does solo or PBEM.
You do have to find players that have the same schedule for play where in PBEM one player can do turn at midnight and another at 3am.
I think that for people with demanding jobs as well as children, the idea of regularly being online for two hours at the same time the same day of each week is outright fantasy. And as soon as you try to coordinate 3+ players? Forget it.But if you can find players who can all be online for 2 hours every monday then TCP/IP will be much more fun then PBEM.
But yes, I agree that if it were somehow possible, TCP/IP would be preferable to PBEM. I just can't see it ever happening.
I guess I must be a fantasy... [:D]
