"I know it's utterly unworkable. But I want it anyway."

That takes me down memory lane. Years ago (around 2007), on an Athlon XP with 2GB RAM, we had the game server for a 2000+ unit C&C clone running. We also had the ability for AI to take over once someone disconnects. We even built our own binary protocol generator (think Protobuf) so that our Java Applet client could connect to the C++ server.

And then I accidentally became CEO of a startup. My friends finished university and then started working. And we all kinda forgot about it.
