TCP/IP and PBEM multiplayer are not available in this version, but if there is interest we will release a multiplayer enabled demo in the future. 

In addition to the American Revolution, don’t forget that the full game also features an entire other theater of operations: Hungary during the Rakoczi Independence War. This was the eastern conflict that occured during the Spanish Inheritance War (1703-1711).
