You know you play this game too much when:

1. Your friend walks out of your office the minute you start talking about Sins of a Solar Empire (true story)!

2. You're driving behind a very slow person and instinctively look for a button on the steering wheel to increase game speed.

3. You are involved in a car accident and the first thing you do is yell: "Capital ship shields are down!"

4. Your friend tells a corny joke while you are replying to this post, "Why did the TEC run from their homeworld? They thought of something more ADVENTagious," and you laugh.

5. My favorite: Two people are having an argument and when they ask for your input, you respond with "your fleet is under attack!" As the fight gets worse, you say, "Allegiance is dangerously low on one of your planets." And when they fail to resolve it and one person stomps off, you turn to the other and say, "You've lost contact with one of your planets."

I know what you mean.

That's awesome. Everyone's replies were awesome. Great topic!

You know you've played SOASE too much...

When you ask your girlfriend to shave her head, dress like a Bene Gesserit and ask her to dominate your universe.

When you ask the bug exterminator if he has armistice leveled up in case the roaches are too powerful.

If you've ever screamed "Flak Burst" after walking through a swarm of gnats.

When you giggle at your girlfriend's shaved head and mutter you didn't even research 'heavy fallout'.

If you've ever wanted to use 'beam blast' to incinerate the 7 people line ahead of you in the grocery store.

When you walk out of the bathroom at the office and declare your Marza Dreadnought just leveled up...

If you've ever dressed up in cardboard boxes for airsoft or paintball to LARP as a TEC Capitalship.

As the Vasari, if you've banned bug spray from your house and tried training roaches to teleport disable mailmen and exterminators.

As the Advent, if you've asked Mormons and Jehovah's Witnesses if they desire to be enlightened.

As the TEC, if you've asked a Mormon if their planet will be able to survive a Novalith Shell.

As the Vasari, if you've ever wanted the 'reintegration' ability the day after eating really spicy food.

If you are able to come up with this many indicators that you've played SOASE too much.
