I agree with Imperator Fyron. In my opinion, for you to say that you can design your own ships in Gal Civ, you would need to be able to pick and choose offensive power, defensive power, speed, hit points, sensor range etc. You just can't do that. Also, you would need to have different weapons that might do approximately the same damage but have different graphical effects and sounds. You would need weapons that have different firing rates, different ranges, etc, etc.

I bought MOO3 and a week later I bought SE4 and have never looked back. SE4 is the game I've always wanted. GalCiv is next on my purchase list. I promise to pay more attention to reviews this time and not buy something just because it's predecessors were good. Moo 3 maps is beautiful but MOO3 needs a "fun" patch. GalCiv sounds a little more on the beer and pretzels side and also sounds fun but different. In other words save your money on MOO3!
Whatever happened to Stars:Supernova?

Stars! SuperNova is pretty much dead. A shame.

They ran out of money and don't have a publisher to foot the bill to finish the game. It doesn't seem likely that anyone is going to buy into it either. Damn shame.

Another good review for GALCIV:
http://firingsquad.gamers.com/games/...ew/default.asp

They Say:
"GalCiv is easily the best 4X game right now and the best that we’ll see for years to come. "

THEY HAVE NOT REVIEWED SE4!!!
