WTF is auto-pause?
What do you not understand? I apologize for not being clear. So I'll try again. And yes, I own MTW. Don't play it though, because the *combat* is real time/continous movement.

Now, this refers to the tactical combat, and *NOT* the strategic portion of the game.

I want the ability to input orders and then have the game automatically pause a set amount of time later so that I can a) amend my orders, b) issue additional ones, and c) review the situation. In other words, I want the *option* of having what is essentially a pseudo turn based tactical game. I hope this is clear enough, and again I apologize if it isn't.

Now, assuming that it is optional, it isn't forced on anyone, and therefore shouldn't be a problem. As an example, Eric Young's Squad Assault will feature just this (www.matrixgames.com)
