The ultimate 4X game for me would combine:
The moddability of SE4 (of course
)
The strategic options of Stars! (gotta love those Mass Drivers, Jump Gates, variable-speed engines with varying fuel consumption, the list goes on and on!
)
The tactical combat engine of MOO2 (with a few changes, like starting the ships farther away tham heavy beam range
)
C'mon, let's get working on it! Check out the "New Game" thread that Snakeye started and is languishing away without much attention - it's not about just some new PBW game!
