35. You finally amase an invasion fleet with four full large troop transports, but you forget to include a mine sweeper. Need I go on?

36. After several moving engagements, your solar power-supplied fleet is chasing the enemy fleet through a nebulae, then a red giant, then a dead star system...

37. Those weapons-heavy fighters youre so proud of are so slow, the enemy was able to circumvent and pommel your carriers...

62. This thread goes on forever with just me and Ashton thinking up more horrible ways how SEV might be destroyed.
63. All known and unknown universes collapse, taking SEV with it.

64. You don't like the new SEV interface, the 3Dish map annoys you, ground combat takes so long you get bored annd loads of other small problems make you hate SEV, but everyone else loves it and refuses to ever play SEIV PBW again.

66. [Since this just happened to me] Your shiny new fleet of crystalline dreads, which are almost impervious to damage because of all the crystal armor they are packing, is pulverized by a smaller, substandard fleet because I accidentally engaged them in one of those "shields useless" systems. **

** Note to self: mark those systems as "systems to avoid"; mark those sectors with minefield markers.

67. You buy a fleet of known superdreadnoughts, nearly invincible, for most of your colonies, only to realise that the seller renamed some unarmed escorts with ion engines before closing the trade.

(Just happened to me >.<)

60. You put the se5 cd in your computer and your computer explodes, taking with it not only your se5 cd but also your se4 cd in the other drive, AND all your unfinished mods/shipsets AND all your savegames.....

61. All of the matter in the universe suddenly ceases to exist, stopping you from playing any Space Empires games.
