10/23/08 - New Game Announcement
Hey everybody, yes we are still alive! We're hard at work on our next game. Its going to be a turn-based conquer the world strategy game. As soon as screenshots are available, we'll post them here. Happy Halloween!
Perhaps a true ground combat engine for SE:VI? Well, we can dream right? It'd be great though if it were published with Shrapnel...

Like Risk, or like Hearts of Iron?. I've liked both types. I even made a mod once for Hearts of Iron.

No details on it. I'd suspect like Space Empires, but not in space. :P

Which means that work on SE V is probably abandoned .

I wouldn't bet on that. One maybe two more patches most likely before end of support.

I think SE5 has one more patch in it. After all, SE4 got a patch and localization versions during SE5's development.

I'd be interested in a planet version of SE. It could be like civilisation, creating a new planet at the start of the game. It would also be a bit different because you have to develop not just land, but sea and air units as well. I can just forsee starting a new game and discovering you started on an island, so you have to research navy, while someone else is the equivalent of Russia and can just use army to sweep across a continent.
