("With respect to the question of Gal Civ vs. Moo3, I just have one simple comment to make about MOO3:

They designed the game so that the real time combats go until they are finished or until 10 minutes have passed--whichever comes first. Let me just say that I had a TON of combats where they had to run the full TEN minutes.

Lots and lots of people will tell you many, many things about MOO3. I can't tell you yes or not on any of them. I found myself rebooting my computer to get out of MOO3 rather than wait 10 tedious minutes while two ships that couldn't hurt each other circled the screen staring at each other.

Until the developers make the 'General Retreat' work better or create some sort of acceleration feature, I would stay far, far away from MOO3.")

YOU CAN SET ANY TIME LIMITS YOU LIKE, AS WELL AS # OF BATTLES ALLOWED IN REAL TIME. ALSO, AS YOUR SHIPS IMPROVE THRU TECH ADVANCES, THE BATTLES BECOME MUCH MORE LIVELY & ENTERTAINING! Of course, you could just let the computer generate a result as well.
