Anyone here going to pick this up?
I have it pre-ordered so hopefully I get a call today or tomorrow to pick it up.
*Crosses fingers* I hope it was worth the wait.

Got my copy today. I played for a bit at lunch, it's absolutely stunning. Will report back with more info on MP after I have tested for a while.
Steel, my copy came with a 10 day free trial of the full version (I'm assuming). I will give it to you when I see you on Friday and you can check it out.

I don't think they designed the game for one person to control all units, it was designed for team play and working together with a common goal. Each player plays a single role (Infantry, Armor, Air, Support) and either another person plays one of the other roles or they can be filled by the AI. I haven't had a lot of time to check out all of the features. I'm going to check and see if there is a commander style mode where you can control all unit roles. I believe you can change roles during a mission, at least that's what I get by reading the book. We'll see.

Gator and I played for about an hour tonight. I know for a fact that you can fill all slots that are not taken by human players with an AI component. Gator and I played 4 vs 4 as NATO, with 2 AI on our side vs 4 AI enemy. We were spanked hard by the enemy Air role. Once we started building AA units, we started to make a push. You can change roles at any time during the mission, and you can request/purchase certain units that are not part of your role; at a more expensive rate.
I had to leave for my game so we didn't get to finish the map. The graphic details in WiC are stunning and I am in awe everytime I fire it up.
