Sorry for posting this here. But what kind of a game will SE V be? Is it a crossover between StarFury and SE IV? So SE IV in 3D?

Starfury's sort of a model for the combat engine in SE5.

SE5 would be the next game in the Space Empires series, so a strategy game, much like SE, SEII, SEIII and SEIV. Starfury is its own "series" (assuming a Starfury II is ever made, otherwise just a stand-alone

).

*Hijacking thread*

So... what can we expect from SE V? 3D Strategy? Would be nice.

The system proposed below does that, and more. Just add a "2-phased" defense type, and make it 100% against normal and phased weapons.

Well Starfury still has 2D combat... no 3D strategy there.

No it doesn't. It still just has static phased and non-phased options. You can not have a weapon that can skip one class of phased shields, but is stopped by a second class. And then have another weapon that skips that second class, but is stopped by the third class. And then another weapon that skips the third class of shields, but is stopped by a forth class. And so on.
