There are a lot of things that are not considered MP-friendly, such as high randomization, that some people, like me, don't mind all the time.

It doesn't actually cause a game to be more luck based as reacting to randomness is part of skill...but in terms of it being competitive, who will actually win, it does become more luck based and that understandably bothers a lot of people.

The people who would play, I assume, would be people that don't mind this randomness or people who simply like MoM enough to play it MP (as there are clearly people who enjoy playing Dom2 SP, though I am with you on that count).

PS: While I didn't play the expansion for it, I did play AoW and I actually didn't think it was much like MoM. So far, one huge thing that most of those games is missing is the whole Civ style empire building aspect of the game.
