I'm 17 years old. It seems here is quite a lot older people so I'm nearly kid compared to the others

I'm new player, got my SE4 only about month ago and I haven't yet played any game to the end. I have five PBW games going and only one has over 100 turns played so I don't have much experience. Perhaps I should have trained against computer a little before join PBW games but IMHO the games against computer aer very boring (I have started many games but none of them exceed 100 turns )

I know the feeling Asmala. I feel like a little kid compared to everyone else here. I'm same age as you BTW. I have had SEIV ever since early Last year. I forget which month. I know I pre-ordered Gold though. So that tells ya something. But I have been around this community ever since March.

New enough, I suppose.

I am 34, bearing down hard on 35 (April), and have spent the Last 10+ years in the Air Force. Computer programmer by trade; currently doing mostly web database stuff, and trying to avoid documentation. My first computer was a Trash-80 CoCo, complete with the chicklet keyboard and 16K o' memory. I had it hooked up to this sorry 19' TV my dad fished out of the local dump. Ah, those were the days... ...lapses into wistful memories...

I'm 53,a Viet Nam vet and am on disability. I was an electonic tech for 25 years. You name it I repaired it

Got my first computer in '93. Took about a year for me to get serious into gaming. Now I have between 150-200 games. (many of the Sharpnels )

Altho I've had SE4(and now the Gold) for a long time I'm just now starting to play it. (and getting my butt whipped I might add).

I live out in the boonies in the suburbs of beautiful downtown Hogeye,Ar. A town so poor our hog can only afford one eye.

Hi,I'm Dave and I'm a PC gaming junkie.

Hi, I'm 28, previously a computer game programmer (Sega's NHL 2K2 for the Dreamcast) but gone back to school because i can't get a job

I taught myself how to program on the Atari 800 way back when I was 9. Been hooked on computers ever since, learning C in High School and recently enrolling in a Game Programming class at Palomar College.

My first strategy game was either Perfect General or Empire Deluxe, can't remember which was first, but I had both. I also can't remember where I found SEIV but I'm glad I did. I hope to take a crack at PBW as soon as the server is back up (Go Schmo!). I also play RTS's and FPS (shooter or sneaker (Go Garrett!)) but my fave is space flight sims (cut my teeth on Star Raiders).

I also enjoy roleplaying games, such as Champions and V:TM, but my favorite system is GURPS (although not really a RPG, I also love Car Wars)

Many Victories!

EDIT: Can't believe I left "strategy" misspelled for so long.
