I was looking for the old "Empire" game Online and found SE3. Downloaded it, loved it, bought it, continued to play it until a few weeks ago when I finally caved and bought SE4.

Was telling a friend how much I loved Empire Deluxe and trying to get him to buy it. He told me of the Online review of SE III. That led to occasional searches for SE III sites which lead to these forums which lead to......

I first started with SE2 back about 3 or 4 years ago (when I was about 12 years old!) I knew I loved strategy games, and was obsessed with space, so I tried an internet search for space strategy games, and Voila! there it was. SE2, the beginning of many, MANY hours of gaming fun!

After I found SE2, i went to Malfador's website and found SE3. After I played the demo to death, I finally bought the full Version and loved it.

After I got a little tired of that, I went back to Malfador's website, and found SE4. Downloaded the demo, played it for a LONG time, then finally couldnt' resist buying SE4 Gold. Best money I've ever spent.

While surfing for a new game I came over this rave review:

http://www.pcgameworld.com/review.php/id/164/

In fact it was so good you could almost suspect the reviewer, a mysterious Scott R Krol, was not totally unbiased

Anyway, thank you Scott. It was all true.

Default Re: How did you hear about SE4 Gold?

Reading a game magazine while I was addicted to crack and alcohol. I needed a new vice that kept me at home w/o appearing to be addicted. Only problem is after 2 years I'm too addicted and have been seen taking turns at work when I don't have the time to snort a few turns at home. The good news is most of the addiction is transparent to others (my wife still thinks I'm crazy when I spend an hour on a turn that includes clicking the mouse a 1k+ times).
