It's out, and although I have it for my Mac, I broke down and bought the iPad version. A little over priced I feel, but whatever.

Identical. You can play with anyone who's on a Windows or Mac machine.

Great! I watched the video on their site but wanted to hear from a player's perspective. Here's another one to add to my ever-growing list. If more games like this (rather than the watered-down stuff we usually see) come out for the iPad my head may explode. I already have too many to get to on my Mac!

Yes, but I've really just begun to play the game. Putting units on hold, etc. requires some thought. I'm a grand strategy grognard, not a minute tactical grognard.  Ah, I'm up for it. Pic your poison.
