How will combat be resolved in Alpha Centauri? Will it be real-time, or will it be the cheasy stuff of Civ one?

Most likely the 'cheasy stuff'. It's a full turn based game(there are simultaneous turns, but that's a different story), not real time. Real time combat in a turn based game would be difficult to implement too.
NOTE: The combat in the civ games wasn;t cheasy, it's better than in Warcraft II type games.
