I would suggest holding on to the current iteration of the PS single player mode, even after we have expanded the mode with all the bells and whistles and depth for the SP experience. The reason why I say this is, right now you are at a great point in the build (tile rewards excluded) to start to swing it in a PBEM experience. The simplistic style and quick board game-like play that the system resembles now would serve a an excellent platform to keep track and assign games for a multiplayer format. I would most definitely get down on a month long campaign in an asynch style with some friends. So log this build before we get much further in altering and adding depth to it.

That's an interesting idea. We haven't decided on plans for MP with Planetary Supremacy, so this is helpful feedback, thanks.

YES THIS! It perfectly mirrors the tile campaigns of the tabletop game. My group of 5 can't really play this game because so far as I understand there is no way to do a 5-player single map game (although I would love that) but a campaign series of 1v1s would be amazing! Please bring this to fruition!
