Hi everyone, I bought a copy of Fleet Command (2010 publishing) about a week ago, and some Googling about the game led me here. I wanted to post a question about the game, but then the signup process suggested that I write a "new here" post, so ... here I am.

Let's see...it seems like I should write more. I'm 31, married, work as a programmer (making fancy websites, mostly), and I have three pets: Two cats and a (really cute) dog. My wife writes a blog about the dog; search for Reactive Champion if you're interested. I'd post a link, but that might come off as spammy in my first post here

I play a lot of video games; my current favorites are Civ 3 and Fleet Command (heh, this week anyway!). The best game of all time was Starcraft, but it's hard to find people to play that because of SC2.

Well, that's me in a nutshell. Toss a bag of peanuts my way every now and again, and we'll get along fine

Don't let your age or marital status get in an uncomfortable way for you; there are a lot of players out there in the same age bracket. Many players are single, married and/or divorced; the full gamut. It can be interesting at times seeing two completely different ways of looking at the same thing when you've got a 15 year old kid discussing a topic with a retired (military) ship captain/NCO.
