Is there no Hot Seat option at all on the Steam version of Massive Assault Phantom Renassaince? If there is, can someone please tell me how to access it. Thanks in advance.

I'm Massive Assault Network 2 GM. I asked others to reply to your post a week ago, it seems that all of them are busy at the World Of Tanks project.
I will try to resolve this problem tomorrow.

No, there is not.

This is very dissapointing, and border-line fraud by wargaming.net and/or Steam. The website for MA: Phantom Renaissance and the Steam instruction manual for the game both specifically list Hot Seat (and also LAN) play as options, and no where is it stated that:

"The Steam version of this game is missing key advertised features."

This should be clearly stated so as not to decieve the customer. I was a big fan of the series, but it is the last wargaming.net product I purchase.
