First of all, I realize some of my postings are a little "off-topic" and I am creating a new thread called "eXperience: the 5h X" to move the discussion dealing with how to make SE4 more challenging in the "boring phase" of the game.

But, to address Spyder's concern about Homeworld: I agree that Homeworld easily became a "click feast" and I just hate that in a RTS game (even more than I hate pointless micromanagement). Even though it was pausable, it was impossible to give orders while in pause. But the graphics, the music, the storyline, and the overall "mood" of Homeworld were so great that I still loved it. I spent a lot of time in pause though, and kind of "prepared my orders" while in pause, then unpaused to quickly actually "give one order", then paused immediately again to do the same with the next order. This was true especially in combat situations of course.
