Multiplayer is definitely, IMO, one of the best aspects of strategy games. CivII Multiplayer was pretty ace, as was AC's online capabilities. What could be better than thrashing your mates in a long, strategic battle of wits over the internet? I can think of little else to do on it...
So, whenever it be coming out, i sure as he11 wont mind splashing out for it.
