Hi. Not sure this has been mentioned before, but concerning the multiplayer saves: Person A is host, person B joins game. They play against each other with AI opponents. After hours of playing both parties agree that they want to pursue this later, so they save the game on their system. All person B has to do after they have disconnected is to load from the multiplayer menu that same game he just saved, and he will now be controlling person A's units therefore allowing to completely see the host's strategy, where their units are, what they research, how much money they have etc...

Doesn't make much sense if you ask me...
