Discussion on 4X games.

[Captain Kwok]

Space Empires IV was the Last computer game I purchased and that was in January. I do not see myself buying another game until Space Empires V. Enough said.

A discussion of what is a 'strategy game' has started on Slashdot under the "Ask Slashdot" topic. The usual 'holy war' between RTS and turn-based games has broken out.

Anyone here have a Slashdot account? You can put in a plug for SE if you do.

I've added a plug for Shrapnel in general and SE IV in particular to that thread. Now someone else should go mod it up.

The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the
human mind to correlate all of its contents. We live on a placid
island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was
not meant that we should go far. -- HP Lovecraft, "The Call of Cthulhu"

I read on the MOO 3 discussion Boards that space monsters have been dropped. Too bad. Not a major feature but a nicely 'distinctive' one. If MM would pick them up I bet it would attract a lot of attention from the die-hard MOO fans.
