A third edition of Space Empires IV to be sold in retail stores by Strategy First, the publisher of Galactic Civilizations.
Deluxe will support more types of music than just CD-audio; I think the new formats are MP3 and MIDI, at least judging from the music support in Starfury.
Bugfixes and other enhancements may or may not be present; nobody really knows yet. Maybe (just maybe) Aaron will elucidate this tomorrow should he appear again on IRC???
David Gervais mentioned once that the game would sell for $19.99, and Aaron said that he plans to release a patch from both Classic and Gold to Deluxe, pending approval from Strategy First (but he has brought it up to them and they haven't *objected* yet
)
