That's hard to decide if i want a blocked moves or not.  

 - There shouldn't be differences between a game human/human and
   human/AI

 - As human i want to have to react when an ememy unit is in front of my
   city. 

A turn is really long, and with end-of-turn and begin-of-turn moving an
AI can kill very much in very short time, a human can't handle more then
2-3 units in short time, but AI ... especially teamed AIs ...

We have concurrent moving, i think AI should be able to do it so.

How should an AI work which isn't on the server?
