Re: So, how did you find out about SE?
Way back when Pentium 75’s were fast, I was looking for free games on the web. I found SE2 and dl’d it. After a few starts and stops I got the hang of the demo and sent off for the full Version. And been sending off every few years since. Stayed up many a night playing that demo Version. A few battle stations could block a warp point all night in that game and combat could Last hours. Then with the full Version, fighters were king.

Re: So, how did you find out about SE?
Was performing a internet search on the board games Starfire and Star Fleet Battles. Stumbled on SEIV via a review. Had enjoyed computer games like Anacreon, Empire Deluxe, Starfleet Warlord, and Pax Imperia, so I tried the SEIV demo. Ordered the full Version two days later then pre-ordered Gold a month later.

Re: So, how did you find out about SE?
During Last september, I was waiting impatiently for the release of MOO3. So I wanted to buy another soft to help me waiting. An internet search on "space strategy game" brung me reviews of SE IV gold... It looked interesting (and quite cheap) so I bought it.
BTW, I've never bought MOO3  ... |

Re: So, how did you find out about SE?
Many years ago I had the demo to SEII and me and my brother would play that for hours upon hours. But after awhile we left the game for other games. Then a couple years ago I got the urge to play the demo to SEII once again; so I did a search for it and I found that SEIV Gold was about to be released. I downloaded the demo and fell in love right away. I preordered it and have been playing ever since. I will preorder SEV at first chance and hopefully get Starfury when it comes out.

Got SEII Demo off some shareware / freeware / demo disk 'package' many years ago. Been playing / following / chasing down the latest Version and have owned copies of everything since....

Re: So, how did you find out about SE?
In the long years between MOO2 and MOO3 I got really bored and typed in "Space Empire games" into a search engine. Hey I was desperate! Found SE4 and downloaded the demo. Played Demo over and over but never bought it. I did buy MOO3 and thought maybe my money would be better spent on SE4 Gold!
