I would also enjoy a planet based sci-fi game. You govern one new colony, oversee it's social and economic defense, deploy short ranged units to defend it (sats, mines weapon platforms) and let someone else (the game's AI, based somewhat on your decisions) worry about defending the void of space. If MM's new game is something like that, I would be interested.

I spent much of this weekend playing Sid Meier's Alien Crossfire.

That was my favorite game until SEIV surpassed it.

I figure it\'ll be a game like Empire/Empire Deluxe, but with options that include designing units and building up cities etc.

I wouldn't bet on that. One maybe two more patches most likely before end of support.

Hey AT did you ever see that PM I sent?

If it could be integrated into SEV (and SEIV?) as a ground combat option, this would be awesome. As a stand-alone 4x "conquer the world" (CTW) game, it already has a lot of competition, not least from various Sid Meier games. (Not to mention games available from Shrapnel.)

What have been the deficiencies of previous CTW games that you hope might be addressed in this new game? What are the features that would make you shell out money?

Maybe this game will be forrunner to SEVI ?
