Re: Other X\'s
Ooooo, Master of Magic. How could I forget about MoM ?
I agree, EFS was good but it could have been better. My biggest complaint were the slow turns in the late game, but maybe those wouldn't be a problem on today's computers. Hmmm, have to re-install it sometime.

Sorry Erax, I don't know these games.
Hell I didn't even know about SE III until August of 2000 when a friend mentioned it at the former OPN forums.
Rebellion and IG might also be considered 4 X games as well.

Re: Other X\'s
Expand first, care to explore what you have secured into your empire later
Thats the reason why eXperienced players start with build colony ships and not explorer-types...
