I too think the best game was Moo - and Moo2. Moo3 really was a failure for me - to arcane. If you like the Moo games - you should try Imperium Galactica 2 - its old as all get out but still pretty good.

Ya I agree, though moo3 with mods is pretty good too. Anyhow I'll see if I can get my hands on IG2 and try it out, it looks interesting.

Dowly - and anyone else who doesn't care for the economic impact of the fleet management of SoSE. Just remember that SoSE if VERY ammendable to modding. You can adjust the techs easily on everything from cost and time to the actual impact it has. In other words - "free" fleet upkeep is rather easy to make happen.

As for IG2 - I just reinstalled it myself. I do know there is an XP patch that is needed - haven't actually tried to run it on this 7 box - but I don't expect problems with it.

Now if I could only get Descent to work with my joystick.... Now there is a game than needs to be remade!

Ya, was reading the modding forums, seems easy enough.

Might even have a shot at making new models.

Discounted on Impulse. Strongly suggest picking it up if you have even the slightest interest. Can't go wrong for $10,-.

* ah, also note that makes it $10,- for each piece; original game, entrenchment and diplomacy. $30,- total, compared to $40,- for the all-in-one trinity pack.

This game rocks when played online. I may get the trinity pack but it's always the problem of whether the game's stocked.

Imo the gameplay is so much superior than in GC2.

The only gripe is there's so many races and ships. They should've made more ships and races.
