So you play in direct competition with CPU players? Otherwise where does the turn-based element come in?

Are they both still war / conquest based or to a certain extent just about building and managing ie Sim City-esque?

Like I say I have never played either but I have previously always enjoyed games like Sim-City, and Red Alert and I somehow got the impression that these two might be in some way a hybrid of those two?
