atWar is now available on Desura where you can now download the standalone installer (installs Silverlight and the game itself on your computer). You can still play it from your browser of course at atWar

That is where you are in luck, there are quick games (choose turn times ranging from 1 to 12 min) and there are casual games - more like your style - where you have 12 or 24 hours to take your turn. On youtube there is the and actual game play of Afterwind (the version before atWar) can be seen . Naturally there is a tutorial you can play to get to know the game

Thanks for the post, I think your members would be interested in this game...

http://imageshack.us/a/img248/3466/screenshot2ae.jpg ProtoBytes has announced the Free Open BETA Release of atWar. atWar has merged with and superseded Afterwind, taking its 7,000+ members with it. atWar is a free multiplayer online turn-based strategy game from the traditions of Risk, Axis & Allies and Civilization. Go to atWar Features at a Glance; Free troop movement, no 'grid' or pre-determined paths, allowing for complex battle sequences Realistic World default map based on real world populations and GDP to determine reinforcements and income from cities City populations suffer from collateral damage when attacked, affecting reinforcements and income Play against up to 20 people simultaneously Make your own maps and units to provide for endless entertainment and possibilities Free to Play and no download, also available via Facebook http://imageshack.us/a/img31/3434/screenshot1zg.jpg From ProtoBytes... ' In the pursuit of creating an engaging turn-based strategy game a realistic world map was taken and we eliminated the 'grid' system and pre-determined paths that dictated troop movement. Now units can move anywhere in the map based on their individual range (although land units can not go on water and vice versa). There are over 10 main land, naval and air units available with many more 'rare' units that are sometimes found when capturing a city. Having this new free movement induces complex battle sequences and demands a high level of strategy acumen. Another method to enrich the gaming experience is the use of real Cities within real Countries and Provinces, rather than just regions. Cities are based on current Population and GDP statistics to determine Reinforcements and Income players receive . Furthermore City populations suffer under attacks affecting the Reinforcements and Income of the City. A feature sure to bring a lot of interest is our Map Editor, where players can make their own maps and units paving the way for you to Re-enact any battle in the Past, Present or even Future. There are already hundreds of maps available that were created by members, including maps based on the Game of Thrones, Ancient Greece and Futuristic battles for Galaxies. We also tried to keep the game simple, with most of the inner complexity in the background, so new players shouldn't be intimidated. The interface and controls are simple and intuitive, and there's no annoying micromanagement. Most of the game revolves around expanding your territory, using different units at the player's disposal. Each game can have up to 20 players spread around the entire map. To reward the players, we have Medals (achievements) and Strategy Points, which can be used to unlock various upgrades, and also translate into ranks. Of course, the best reward is still winning a fair game against worthy opponents.' clip http://button.desura.com/rating/medium/games/20213.png
