If you like ancients, www.dbaol.com. I play that alot. DBA rules, quick games and the regulars are great guys. It costs money, but I have just about as much fun there as I do kicking Allied arse in WiTP.

What makes a game extra exciting is one that is completely different everytime you play. Alas, I fear that will be the down fall of WiTP for me. It will become to predictable.

Darloks...

Darloks are evil. I always played either the humans or the Psilons. I loved having mega photon torpedoes (or whatever they were called) while my opponents we still using lasers.

As far as know, the only space strategy games of their time......maybe Galactic Civilizations was out by the time Moo II arrived.

Any recommendations on a GOOD space strategy game now? I made the mistake of buying MOO III recently. What a waste. I wouldn't even use it as a paper weight...the box is even ugly!

So. Just so I get this right. Anything similar to Star Wars: Supremacy (Rebellion I believe in US)?

Talking of space games brothers. I assume you all played and loved Elite? Elite: Frontiers anybody?

Classics..........
