Thanks to Admiral for taking the time to create this program.

This is what makes Space Empires IV a great game - the player's dedication.

This sounds cool. I want in! Send me info at instar_m@hotmail.com

Re: SEIV: Play by Web
 

Great! Does this system support both modes (i.e. turn based/simultanious) or only one?

I'm not sure if it supports "turn based" multiplayer. I've only ever played the simultaneous one, and it certainly supports that. If the mechanics are different (which they probably are) then it would not be supported now, but it would almost certainly not be much effort to modify it in the future to accept both.

Cheers,

Admiral

Already is, since long before SE4.

The SpaceEmpires fans are very web prolific, Especially us Roleplayers.

I think this would be an AWESOME tool for playing SE:IV.

Still need 4 more test players for my game.

Re: SEIV: Play by Web
 

I have never played a game through the net but would like to try. Dracus if my novice level doesn't put you off - I'll play (and I'll understand if you'd rather I don't)

Keep us posted here! This sounds very interesting, a nice, fast way to play SEIV, or SEIII, SEV, SEVI (I can dream, right? http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/images/icons/icon7.gif )...

I don't really have time to personally have a hand in it's development, so I'll just give encouragement http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/images/icons/icon7.gif
