I think a trial version can play against a full version (but I'm not certain). Let's give it a try! You will only be able to play as Marines, but they're one of the better races IMO. From the game menu, go to the web interface and see if you can issue me a Challenge. My game name is Regnor Vex (2 words).

At my highest level of LSN activity, I was plotting 200+ seconds of orders each turn for each unit to make sure they would do exactly what I wanted no matter what the opponent did. I consider LSN more time consuming than most games, important turns could take hours to set up correctly. But of course it was all worth it when you totally crushed your opponent.

I'm still very much the noob at this but I'm glad to know that it's not just that I'm slow, even vets can take a long time on their moves. Right now I've got about 10 games going simultaneously and it literally takes me all night after I get home from work to plot all my moves if I were to do them all in one night. Fortunately I can stagger them. I used to think it was a shame this game was email only with no LAN option. Now I realize that there's really no other way to play it and have the same level of depth. Can you imagine playing this in real time waiting for each other to move lol?

Im back to playing Ultima Online (on free servers).
You can download the latest version of the Ultima Online game legally from their official server (blizzard.com) and then point it to go to one of the over 300 free servers. There are MANY variations.

The one Im in love with (and host the domain for) is Shazzy's Shard.
http://www.ShazzyShard.org
Its adult run (husband and wife team), down on PvP, lots of added materials and crafts, hard gains. What I love thats different than the official servers is no crowds of Pkillers, and no crowds period. When I build my house in the wilderness its REALLY in the wilderness. No neighbors.
