Re: Other X\'s
Those 4 are the ones which are meant when talking about 4X games (ie. They are widely known by everyone familiar with strategy games). MOO3 was advertised to be first 5X game when adding eXperience in the list. Though I don't yet know what it actually means in MOO3 expect you need to have huge experience of the game to play it properly.
You can design a game with X's more than 4, but in general there are no meaning for those X's yet. I agree that eXtended and eXperienced fit well into SEIV.
