Yeah, that's the one.

The website doesn't get updated very often these days. I'm having less and less time to get around to this stuff now, but it does get updated every now and then.

Starscape is currently running episode 5 (4 is nearing an end with the players finally overcoming the Dominion and other loose ends being wrapped up).

Did you play? If so, who are you? I know and talk to most of the players every now and then, however my fans are mysterious. They float around and occasionally send me emails, but usually stay pretty quiet.

We've been on hiatus for about 3 weeks recently due to my appearance at a local science fiction convention, but we should be resuming shortly.

As for SEIV, I've had my eye on this game for quite some time and love all the detail (especially the robust tech trees). It would be nice to port Starscape over to SEIV, as it looks like the host gets alot more control than Stars! normally allows.

I have not played stars in about 2 years. I played it heavy way back 93-97.

I mostly played in the (trying to remember the name of the games.) ... I think it was called the nexus campaigns. They ran about 2 years.

I really enjoyed the game. Your series. I never played. Just used to go and read about the games every once in awhile.

U should enjoy this group of people.

SEIV will Last for a while. It has a good base of core people.

So when you get bored of the game you just play it to keep intouch with people.

As a stars player the only problem is that there is not enough micro mangement

U will see.

Modding is quite easy. AI is tricky. And the balance factor is tricky.

SO I would just design your mod for pbem and pbw games. It is just a suggestion.

And post any questions here. They will get answered.

Nice talking to you. I was known as Tesco in the stars days.
