what if WC was multiplayer.....

I think if they were to make an on-line WC game it would need strategy elements. Perhaps if you reached a high enough rank you could be given command of your own capship and then could control it in a fashion a bit like say X-Com Interceptors strategy elements. Then if you got promoted higher you get a better Capship and stuff. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> They were doing Privateer Online though...

True. But that didn't go anywhere.

Actually, I was quite adamant about PO coming out. Yet too bad it did not.

Privateer Online is very appropriate, mainly because the host requires self-sustaining worlds for gamers to enter into from time to time. It would be quite a feat to create Terran, Kilrathi, border, and neutral worlds to travel through. You'll need some invulnerable worlds to keep this going, otherwise it would be one short story rather than an epic. Fleet actions, skirmishes, supply and escort runs, you name it... Shards could be created for each interlocking or even overlapping scenarios.

But its demise didn't have anything to do with Armada

I have not played Armada for quite some time. I'll have to reinstall them on my new PC. As far as I could remember, you could play it on the network. Is Armada playable thru the Internet? That would be fun?

Armada's add-on, Proving Grounds has a multiplayer option. But no internet play.
