Well it truely does address all the pet peeves of rts and 4x gamers and blends the two genres into an innovative new type of game. On that merit alone it will get raves. And ya know it would only come from an indy company because they are hungry. They have to stand out to make it.

An old game with two solid pixelated rectangles renderend on an old cathode ray tube television that where as big as your refrigerator. You would hit a little square back and forth like squash or tennis. It was absolutely amazing at the time.

[quote][quote]How long DOES it take to bring a fleet in from, say, a neighboring planet?[/quote][/quote] Depends on the distance of the two gw's and if you have researched quicker phase drives but by that time you probably should think about attacking from the star because you will be detected from a roid or planet due to research in phase drive detection. Least thats how it works in beta 4.

I'll track it down spartan, thanks for the heads up! I've kinda been a nostalgia mode for the last few months with all these old games getting redone like Duke Nukem. Maybe they will redo Castle wolfenstein too. Or maybe they should just leave it all alone and leave it where it needs to be. I dunno...

What was the original video game played on an oscilloscope called? I forget. Anyway, ya, I was born in 75 and by the time I got an atari it had already been out 2 or three years - about the time warner got them I believe. Got bored of Frogger and I started playing Pitfall on the Commodore 64, think the atari went into the closet after that. Man I feel old.

Ok, now I have formed my Strategy! In my first game against Annatar I will restart the game at least four times till I get two more asteroids than him. I will turtle until I accumulate 30,000+ Desolators and Devastators and then I still won't attack because I dunno... I lick to be a d*ck?

I remember I was six years old and all I wanted in the world was an Atari and Commodore 64! I was one of those A.D.D. kids that was fed ridalin by the truck load so I guess my father finally caved in and got me an Atari 2600 for my birthday, hoping it would keep me occupied and give him some peace.
