I did buy the first Starfleet Command game, but gave up after awhile because of the high learning curve. I have no patience for that, and if I can't learn the game after a couple of hours of experimenting, I usually put it aside. That'w why I like SEIV so much. It was almost a no-brainer to pick up the basics. It was some of the nuances that took me awhile to learn. But thanks to this message board, I've learned just about everything I need to know about this game. If Starfleet Command had a similar website, maybe I'd still be playing that game too.
