Fyo, I guess on of my problems with many of these games is that I like primitive technology better. I find that as the technology progresses, things sorta get out of hand. Like in Civ, the first to research the Tank had pretty much won. Agreed. I too like the early stages of the games. Later stages become boring, as the person ahead in technology pretty much always wins. Joe

qq{ I love these strategy games. I'm spending quite a lot of my spare time playing an old one - Master of Orion II. Even there I find myself spending incredible amounts of time micromanaging. For example, in the original, you just had each planet build either "bases" (defense), upgrade industry, planet shield, ships, trade goods or terraforming (maybe research as well, I guess). You didn't have to micromanage exactly who does what, why and when. } FYI: Moo3 is currently being developed. :) Dave
