Don't worry, you're not the youngest. My kids play too. They've just never posted -- too young and innocent to be wandering the web alone. (I mean, they can't even beat the unmodded AI without using underhanded tricks! Hmmm...maybe that should be a minimum-competency test for a high-school diploma?)

20, unemployed and not going to school (was getting boring), and live in the beutiful city of Pensacola, Florida (anyone know about it?). One of the earlist games I remeber playing was Digman, i think it was called that. I still love playing games (A bit to much) and enjoy playing strategy games that really test my strategic skills. I also imagine making my own games, but I'm not smart enough to do that. Mabe in the future.

I'm 36, married, design engineer who builds radar systems for a living. I've played strategy games since I was a kid. I also like football strategy games (like Front Office Football), auto racing, and playing flag football.

Oh, so median. I'm 31, a newspaper copy editor and a lifelong gamer, both in the computer and cardboard chit world. Bought SE4 just about three weeks ago, and I've managed to sleep a full two or three hours a night since then. I'm incredibly impressed with the player-friendly ethic shown by Shrapnel and Malfador, and with the support shown by players on this thread and others. Y'all rock.

Hi Droplede,

I too am a newspaper copy editor, though I'm 39. In two weeks I head back to Japan to ply my trade again.

I am a married, 38 year old, computer programmer. I enjoy playing board games and strategy computer games, when time permits. Computer Game favorits include: Stars! and SEIV. I tend to dislike Real-time games because they become click fests with no time for thinking through tactics. Favorite Wargames include GMT's GBOH series, AH's Third Reich, Republic of Rome, Dune, and Civilization (Original and Advanced).

I am 32, computer programmer(seems like a profession of the majority here), married with 2 kids. My first game, and still one of my Favorites, was "La Battle de la Moscow"(Borodino board game) when I was in high school. Have been playing war and strategy games ever since. My favorite themes are Napoleonic, WWII and 4X. Have a large collection of Napoleonic miniatures that I have painted my self with intent to make a model battlefield....

Aahh Moscow, great game. One of the prettiest counter sets ever. I wish they could duplicate it for the computer, although Talonsofts effort was good.

Yes, 'Napoleon in Russia' is a very good copy of that game(played it a lot of times)!

I'm 22, a research assistant in Biology at the University of Michigan. I'm also variously a would-be professional science fiction writer [blatant plug] Check out my story in As Seen on the Web[/plug], sometime web designer, sometime violinist, as well as a lot of other things that take up time from gaming. I play almost exclusively strategy and spaceflight-sims.
