MP for BG works well, provided everyone is not a pause-unpause-pause freak like me.

Everyone can pause or unpause...it slows down combat a lot but unless you are a fast RTS player, things fly by. Don't think I could stomach MP BG with more than 2 other people.

It basically plays similar to (but significantly faster than) a tabletop game if everyone has a shitload of autopauses enabled.  As the guys in the group are from one of my old tabletop groups and we're all fucking about on Skype the whole time, this works out just fine.

I can't imagine trying to play an MP game without the autopause.
TPK.
Reload.
Lather, rinse, repeat.
...maybe we should try it for the lolz

I just read that the cat followed up by visiting the dog house later that night, dropping some Willie Pete in on the sleeping dog.  #epochsfamiliarFTW
