Default Re: Current other active game software

Yes I still play stars sometimes but just solo. It processes fast so it makes a nice change from the kindof hosting I get from Dominions in the huge solo games I play with it.

For my "roguelike" fix I host a MUD on one of my servers. Its a text MMO based on Shadowdale. The address is play.sdmud.org 7777 if anyone can still figure out telnet or dig up a telnet client.

For the people wondering why SEIV (Space Empires IV) keeps showing up, in many ways its a space version of Dominions. Not quite so deep on the strategy, but abit better on the modding. It started out rather weak (8 empires) but players drove it to over 300 empires you could play besides driving the maps much larger, the image file turned huge, and added more techs. It was hosted here at the time, and the forums for it are still here.
