In my 40+ years of sci-fi reading this series was one of the most enjoyable. Looks like the new computer game Starshatter will be a bit smaller in scale than SEIV Gold but might be interesting. And it sounds like MOO3 is mess if the forum is to be believed.

I played the demo of Starshatter and I'd say it's far closer to Battlecruiser 3000 than it is to MOO or SE4.
I have the ISW-4 scenario book for the Starfire game so I knew how the Arachnid war played out a while ago. Nevertheless, I still plan to get the The Shiva Option (probably this weekend) and I'm sure it will be a great read.
