Hopefully that will be possible now, since Strategy First bought Malfador and they'll be able to throw an actual budget in his direction.

Ok, I see it here again, a mention that Strategy First has 'Acquired' Malfador Machinations.. wtf? (sorry for the foul language) SFI Acquired 'Intellectual Property' From Malfador. they did not 'Acquire the company'. They got the Name and lisence for the Space Empires Franchise. PERIOD!

What does this mean? It means that SE and it's future are in SFI's hands, This Includes 'Starfury' since it's official name is "Space Empires: Starfury". They do not for example have the rights to Dungeon Odyssey, and If Aaron should so choose to start a new series of games he is free to do so.

Misinformation is worse than a bad review. It bugs me to no end. And here's a opinion of SFI.. They went through hell, Most companies would have gave up and pulled the plug, threw in the towel. Did they? No, they stuck with it and suffered the consequences. They can't change the past, only try their best to make the future bright. (Poo! happens to good people, anyone care to dispute this fact? It does not make the poo smell better, and spreading it around only serves to 'soil' everyone involved. grrrr..)

Sorry for the rant, but this misinformation about the 'Acquisition' has been going around long enough. It Irks me.

Nuf Said, Cheers!
