While reading the review of that game, I stumbled upon this link to a new Version of OS/2 game Galactic Civilizations. Wow. That brings back memories...

BTW, this article mentions that the new Gal Civ may emulate the ministers feature found in Space Empires IV. I missed that bit the first time I read the review. It's extremely cool to see the far-reaching influence Space Empires IV is having on the genre.
