Ahh, so many fond memories from SEIII. Still play once in a while, the AI's can sure give you a run for your money if they're on team mode! Good times.

Why not?

It's important to remember the ancestors that came before us.

why
Because some ppl would rather play a shareware game than shell out hard cash for SE4?

Because there are some ways in which SEIII is arguably better than seIV? (construction queues spring to mind)

Because it make a nice change from se4 every now and again?

IIRC, some guys found a cheat that was never addressed by MM. That sort of killed of the PBEM comunity.

But it was a nice game. 1v1's could be over in an hour. And ship sets were easy to make.

I fully own SE4 and Starfury, and will be buying SE5 when it comes out, No insult to Malfador here at all, but I really can not be bothered or want to pay $25 for SE3, is there anyway to get it full version for free so I can try a few games?

Only by purchasing it. The shareware has no turn limits, just tech limits and no modding.

wow, I like the research in this game, from screenshots, I am guessing it is like this in SE5, also, it is weird having thegalaxy map larger than the sector map!

The shareware version of SEIII can be downloaded directly from malfador.com. Getting a registration code costs $25 and can be ordered here or through a number of other options listed on the SE3 section of the Malfador site.
