Thanks, Erik. The main problem was managing the war. Their ships were faster and tougher than mine, so they were often able to strike an undefended system, then leave before I could get my ships there. I had a much bigger economy, but it took ages to turn that into an effective group of fleets that could take the battle back to them. In the height of the war, there were so many separate battles that it was hard to keep control, even on 0.25 speed. I must say, looking back on it, the game created an absolutely epic feeling, that I've rarely seen in any other strategy game I've played. I first bought this game last year, but never really got anywhere with it, partly because of the steep learning curve, but mostly because the fonts are so small on my 27" monitor. However, I decided to give it another shot after being disappointed by StarDrive, and I'm so glad I did. I hear you're even going to improve the font sizes in Shadows. Well done to you and your team for creating this great game! Osito
