I'm blocking MOO II. I know I played it a lot for a while, but for the life of me I can't remember it. As I recal though it had less randomness to the game. What makes a game extra exciting is one that is completely different everytime you play. Alas, I fear that will be the down fall of WiTP for me. It will become to predictable.

Yeah, after you finish the campaign a dozen or so times.

Darloks...
Darloks are evil. I always played either the humans or the Psilons. I loved having mega photon torpedoes (or whatever they were called) while my opponents we still using lasers.

Im not sure I will ever make it out of 1942. In fact, I am wondering what is the point. My opponents will have spent all their resources by the end of 42 anyway and from there on it will be a mop up operation.

Master of Orion. I and II were the best Space Strategy Games of their time.

As far as know, the only space strategy games of their time......maybe Galactic Civilizations was out by the time Moo II arrived.

Any recommendations on a GOOD space strategy game now? I made the mistake of buying MOO III recently. What a waste. I wouldn't even use it as a paper weight...the box is even ugly!

Thanks guys.

So. Just so I get this right. Anything similar to Star Wars: Supremacy (Rebellion I believe in US)?

Talking of space games brothers. I assume you all played and loved Elite? Elite: Frontiers anybody?

Classics..........
