I'm still in favor of adding a 'solo' server, where you can net/fight/interact with bots. Could be slightly randomized. This would allow you to play all your turns immediately and the bots would evolve as you play.
This might be more complex, but it would definitely be great training for new players and would provide some of the people who are bored and want to play turns immediately with some entertainment. I haven't played in a long time, since it's too demanding in time, but I would come back to play this.
Maybe (long shot), it would be possible to have a couple of players who are online play in one game against bots (you get 10 turns, then have to wait until others play turns or give up, or stop taking turns for longer then... 5 minutes?). That would be neato!
