Yeah... I remember how I discussed such an option for MTW I believe.

That would actually be doable since there was nothing that was done right away (like moving the armies). I used to use that as an argument all those "it will take too long waiting for three other players doing their turns". There was even a guy that proposed that every player should get a little weak bodyguard unit for proper battles so we could all watch and talk about it (and perhaps even backstab if it came to that).
