I am trying......

....to really like this game. Well lets say I like a lot about it. But it is too easy to beat the AI on the tactical map and well...Im just not too sure how things work. But other than that I have to admit it IS kinda fun. I have always liked strategic level games.

Keeping trying, as you are not going to get any support for the game, and for what I paid it ranks up there as abandonware of the worst kind. I was shocked that the devs of Space Empire IV - V would do that do a loyal audience.

Yeah, it's a pity that Aaron Hall has abandoned the game instead of trying to improve it, especially because the main component that would need to be improved can't be modded, so the community can't do anything about this. I've tried to influence him a long time last year (via mails, a lot of bug reports etc.) but I guess it's done nothing, but has instead harmed the community because I was the only one posting here for quite some time (and Shrapnel told me that I should stop posting, quite angrily). I think nothing can be done about this. But, please try writing Aaron a nice mail, maybe some people who haven't contacted him before can change his mind:

Good luck!
BTW, if you like strategic level games, try out this nice open source freeware game:

Just my jumble opinion: It's ridiculous that this game still sells for 24.95 $. You can't expect any support or improvement on it. Move on to Matrix Games, Slitherine etc., these are far better publishers than Shrapnel Games.
