I agree with Katank that it is not possible to do a proper (simultaneous) MP campaign game.

Specifically, in ConstableBrew's post steps #3 and 5 are a problem: -ian (god mode) will not allow you to play more than one faction at a time. I.e when the referee hits End Year, only the faction he is playing will be skipped by AI. All others will go Thinking... and so a human-played faction will be replayed by the AI and possibly change all actions.

As for #5, there are no mechanisms to transfer the results of online MP battles to the campaign map.

Unless major hacking/recoding is done the MTW executable, simultaneous MP campaign will not be achieved.

(I still think my idea of an alternating reign multiple player campaign is worth a try. It is not true MP, but makes for interesting game. Once I have time, I will launch a PBM based on that idea in the Throne Room).


Having said all that, I still think CA should include a RTW multi-player campaign feature. (Yes it is doable).
