Events!!!
I just got my copy Last night and I'm sittin' in my office still suckin' down the caffine at 3 PM 'cause I stayed awake 'till about 3 AM playing. Great job on this one guys!!!
I wanted to add this experience. In SE3, I'd always turn on the random events 'cause I never turn on "All Warp Points Connected". What happens to me many times is I'll get transported across the galaxy by some "Spacial Anomoly" (although it was called something else in SE3).
All of you that played SE3 are saying "Big Deal - what's your point?". Well, Last night, I had a Space Station with a Space Yard on it transported all the way across the galaxy to a system I could not have gotten to until Warp Point Manip. I had only ships do that before and not stations. COOL!!! A new way to plant yourself in another part of the galaxy - I even had a Cap Ship Mis for a little protection. Too bad I ended up in a Black Hole system and was sucked in in about 3 turns!!!
However, I'm waiting for it to happen again so I can build an offensive force without endagering my homeworlds at all (at least in the early going and as long as I build enough counter-Intel). If it happens again, I'll emergency build some Sat's to protect my base, build a fleet, and maybe force a wimpy neutral to give me his homeworld (although I hear that is much harder now).
