before you decide, perhaps it would be best to find out what you consider to be "multi player"? With Massive assault network, the best turn based game in my opinion, there really is no multi player option. You either play games against the AI or you play games against a real opponent. Either way, there is no option for more than you and 1 opponent, you just have a choice of either a computer opponent or a live person. The game plays the same, the maps are the same and the units available are the same. The big difference is: you will soon learn how to beat the AI, so those type of games will become boring quite fast unless you get a lot of satisfaction beating up on a computer program. A real opponent will prove much more challenging, give you much more interesting game play and provide a platform for your own game play to improve far beyond anything you can learn from playing the AI
