SEIV and VGA Planets
Some time back, I spent a few years with some friends doing the PBEM thing with VGA Planets. I've been keeping half an eye out for a replacement (I have no interest in VGAP v.4) and want something a little more strategic in fleet battle than stacking Ship ID's. I've had a quick look at the SEIV demo and it looks like it could nicely fill that niche. I'm just starting to lobby that old crew into starting some new PBEM that's NOT VGAP. I've already volunteered to host some shareware games.
Anyway, I'd like to hear from people who have VGAP experience with SEIV and VGAP 3.x about the similarities and differences between the two. I'm interesting in things such as resource management, research, PBEM fleet battle resolution etc.. As things come up, which I hope they do, I'll probably have more questions.
I've just started playing around with the SEIV demo only scratching the surface (I did the tutorial the other night) so I'm interested in the obvious as well.
Thanks in advance and cheers!
