Can you save a game in Multiplayer mode? If you can then how do you load the saved game with all the human players logged on?

Yes you can. Anyone can save the game, just jump over to the 'MENU' bar and save normally.
To restart the game and then load the saved game you start a multiplayer game like normal
Ie MULTIPLAYER, then Internet or IP, then HOST, then name the game (just like you started a brand new one).
Then when you get in there on the left side you can click on the 'map' spot on the left/top of the screen....same place you set your time per turn to loose/moderate etc. and a pull down menu with Load game will show up. Load up your game and your ready to go.
Note: it doesn't always remember who is who so you may have to have your other players repick their specific factions, but other than that it'll then start from that point.
(you can have them join before or after you've loaded the save game btw)
